6.6.4 Breath marks

Breath marks are entered using \breathe

     
     c'4 \breathe d4

Commonly tweaked properties

The glyph of the breath mark can be tuned by overriding the text property of the BreathingSign layout object with any markup text. For example,

     
     c'4
     \override BreathingSign #'text
       = #(make-musicglyph-markup "scripts.rvarcomma")
     \breathe
     d4
