Re: Help with \lyricsto and polyphony

[Maurits Lamers]

Even easier is the use of

<<
        \context Voice = "a" { music }
        \context Voice = "b" { music }
>>

because it makes it easier to assign the correct lyrics to. This works 
perfectly with version 2.2.5.

If examples are needed, please let me know.
