In an orchestral score, instrument names are printed left side of the staves.
This can be achieved by setting Staff.instrument
and Staff.instr. This will print a string before
the start of the staff. For the first start, instrument is
used, for the next ones instr is used.
\set Staff.instrument = "Ploink "
\set Staff.instr = "Plk "
c1
\break
c''
You can also use markup texts to construct more complicated instrument names, for example
\notes {
\set Staff.instrument = \markup {
\column < "Clarinetti" { "in B"
\smaller \flat } > }
{ c''1 }
}
Program reference: InstrumentName.
When you put a name on a grand staff or piano staff the width of the brace is not taken into account. You must add extra spaces to the end of the name to avoid a collision.
