Hi again,
I am trying to do the following for a soprano line that splits (div) 2x
and the second division has each part singing different lyrics with
different melisma.
I wonder if the following setup will work as I have yet to have success:
sopOneMusic \context Voice = "sopranoOne" { s1*14 one or two notes at the
second division with silence filling all bars on either side s*14 }
sopOneWords \lyricmode { words at the second division - really only one
vowel held for a few beats }
sopTwoMusic \context Voice = sopranoTwo" { all unison and second
soprano parts including both soprano parts at first division }
sopTwoWords \lyricmode { all unison and second soprano words except for at the
2nd division }
altoMusic etc...
altoWords etc...
---
other parts (five percussion and piano (two hands)
---
\score { <<
\context ChoirStaff <<
\context Lyrics = sopranoOne \lyricsto sopranoOne \new Lyrics
\sopOneWords
\context Staff = soprano
\context Voice = sopranoOne
{ \voiceOne \sopOneMusic }
\context Voice = sopranoTwo
{ \set Staff.printKeyCancellation = ##f \set
Staff.instrument = " Soprano " \set Staff.instr = " Sop
" \voiceTwo \sopTwoMusic }
\context Lyrics = sopranoTwo \lyricsto sopranoTwo \new
Lyrics \sopTwoWords
\context Voice = alto
{ \set Staff.printKeyCancellation = ##f \set
Staff.instrument = " Alto " \set Staff.instr = "
Alt " \altoMusic }
\context Lyrics = alto \lyricsto alto \new Lyrics
\altoWords
>>
---
percussion and piano here
---
>>
Everything prints out pretty well except that the sopOneWords, which I
hoped would print above the staff very briefly (only for a few beats at
the second div) don't show up.
I am guessing that I am missing some syntax somewhere.
Version 2.6.3 Debian "testing" here.
Thanks again for any help,
Sterling MacNay
