            Abjad 3.29
==========

Abjad helps composers build up complex pieces of music notation in iterative
and incremental ways. Use Abjad to create a symbolic representation of all the
notes, rests, chords, tuplets, beams and slurs in any score. Because Abjad
extends the Python programming language, you can use Abjad to make systematic
changes to music as you work. Because Abjad wraps the LilyPond music notation
package, you can use Abjad to control the typographic detail of symbols on the
page.

Create a Python 3 virtual environment for Abjad:
https://docs.python.org/3/tutorial/venv.html

Activate the virtual environment and then use pip to install Abjad:

..  code-block::

    ~$ python -m pip install abjad

Start Python, import Abjad, start making music notation:

..  code-block::

    ~$ python
    >>> import abjad
    >>> note = abjad.Note("c'4")
    >>> abjad.show(note)
