System spacing |

Folks,
I have a score in which the first two systems each have 3 verses (lines of
text) underneath, and the next three systems are the chorus and have only one
line. Each system is one line of music.
I saw that there is some control over the inter-system spacing, but it is not
clear to me how to modify the spacing of the chorus such that it the chorus
lines only take up the space required, rather than the same space that the
verses do...
Thanks,
Ruth
The outer level of the .ly file is as follows. I can post more if needed:
\score {
%\midi { \tempo 4=72 }
<<
\context Voice = mel {
\repeat volta 3 {
\verseMusic \bar "" \break
\chorusMusic
}
}
\lyricsto mel \new Lyrics { \verseOne \chorusText }
\lyricsto mel \new Lyrics \verseTwo
\lyricsto mel \new Lyrics \verseThree
