Hi Nicolas,

Although it is not possible today, but hoping to see that day, when Lilypond will include all kinds of notations. As a matter of fact, we are stuck in that part in Bengali Wikisource, where there are books on music using a musical notation from India called Akarmatrik Swaralipi. I guess, this is true for many oriental music systems, which Lilypond has not included till now.

Anyway, there can be different musical notations for a single music item. For that reason, P518 can be a mandatory qualifier for this property, which serves the purpose to distinguish the notations.

Regards,
Bodhisattwa

Shouldn't the property be named ''modern musical notation'' to distinguish it from other forms of musical notations from around the world?

It shouldn't as Lilypond can be used for any musical notations (at least in theory, not sure what is indeed implemented both on Lylipond and on Wikidata, I saw it used for medieval musical notation, on Wikisource IIRC) .
