6.3 MIDI instrument names

The MIDI instrument name is set by the Staff.midiInstrument property. The instrument name should be chosen from the list in MIDI instruments.

\set Staff.midiInstrument = "glockenspiel"
...notes...

If the selected instrument does not exactly match an instrument from the list of MIDI instruments, the Grand Piano ("acoustic grand") instrument is used.
