Editing Indicating cross-staff chords with a bracket

An arpeggio bracket can indicate that notes on two different staves are to be played with the same hand. In order to do this, the <code>PianoStaff</code> must be set to accept cross-staff arpeggios, and the arpeggios must be set to the bracket shape in the <code>PianoStaff</code> context.

The following example typesets measure&nbsp;65 of Debussy’s prelude ''Les collines d'Anacapri''.

<lilypond version="2.24">
\new PianoStaff <<
  \set PianoStaff.connectArpeggios = ##t
  \override PianoStaff.Arpeggio.stencil =
    #ly:arpeggio::brew-chord-bracket

  \new Staff \relative c' {
    \key b \major
    \time 6/8
    b8-.(\arpeggio fis'-.\> cis-.
      e-. gis-. b-.)\!\fermata^\laissezVibrer \bar "||"
  }

  \new Staff \relative c' {
    \clef bass
    \key b \major
    << { <a e cis>2.\arpeggio } \\
       { <a, e a,>2. } >>
  }
>>
