17 * This class implements an engraver for ambitus grobs.
19 * TODO: There are quite some conceptional issues left open:
21 * - Many publishers put ambitus _before_ the first occurrence of a
22 * clef. Hence, formally the pitches are undefined in this case. Of
23 * course, one could always silently assume that ambitus pitches refer
24 * to the first occurrence of a clef. Or should we, by default, put
25 * the ambitus always after the first clef, if any?
27 * - Enharmonically equal pitches: Assume piece contains once a "gis",
28 * another time an "aes" as highest pitch. Which one should be
29 * selected for the ambitus grob? The "aes", because it is
30 * musically/notationally "higher" than "gis"? Or "gis", because (if
31 * using pure temperament) it has a slightly higher frequency? Or
32 * that pitch that come closer to the key signature? But there may be
33 * key signature changes in the piece...
35 * - Multiple voices in single staff: Assume a vocal piece of music,
36 * where the soprano voice and the alto voice are put into the same
37 * staff (this is generally a bad idea, but unfortunately common
38 * practice). Then, there probably should be two ambitus grobs, one
39 * for each voice. But how can you see which ambitus grob refers to
40 * which voice? Most probably you can guess it from the fact that the
41 * ambitus of the alto voice typically lies in a lower range than that
42 * of the soprano voice, but this is just a heuristic rather than a
43 * generally valid rule. In the case of only two voices, using stems
44 * in the ambitus grob might help, but probably looks quite ugly.
46 * - If a piece consists of several loosely coupled sections, should
47 * there be multiple ambitus grobs allowed, one for each section?
48 * Then there probably should be some "\ambitus" event added to
49 * mudela, stating where an ambitus grob should be placed. This
50 * ambitus grob should then represent the ambitus in the range of time
51 * between this "\ambitus" event and the next one (or the end of the
52 * piece, if there is no more such event). To be compliant with the
53 * current implementation, we might implicitly assume an "\ambitus"
54 * event at the beginning of the piece, but then the question where
55 * to put this first ambitus grob (before/after the clef?) becomes
56 * even more urgent.
58 * - Incipits of transcribed music may need special treatment for
59 * ambitus, since, for readability, the ambitus most probably should
60 * not refer to the ancient clefs of the incipit, but rather to the
61 * clefs used in the transcribed parts.
