The easiest way to parenthesize dynamics is to use the normal <code>\parenthesize</code> command and adjust the font size, e.g., <code>{ c'4\tweak Parentheses.font-size 2 \parenthesize \f }</code>. However, this results in upright parentheses, while dynamic marks are normally slanted. This snippet gives a method to make the parentheses slanted as well. | |||

The easiest way to parenthesize dynamics is to use the normal \parenthesize command and adjust the font size, e.g., { c'4\tweak Parentheses.font-size 2 \parenthesize \f }. However, this results in upright parentheses, while dynamic marks are normally slanted. This snippet gives a method to make the parentheses slanted as well.
