Re: cross staff melody

[Mats Bengtsson]

If you first try your example without the \change Staff ..., you will
notice that the same problem remains. What happens is that your
polyphony in the lower part,
<< { r8 f16 ( g ) f8 } \\ c2. >>
has the same duration as the longest of the two voices, i.e. as the c2.
Then, when you add more 16th notes after the << ... >>, they will
begin after the end of the c2. The solution is just to include all your
16th notes including staff changes within the << {...} \\ {...} >> 
construct:

lower = \relative c
{
   \clef bass
   \key b \major
   \time 6/8

   << { r8 f16 ( g ) f8 \change Staff = "upper"
       g'''16 ( f ) g, f \change Staff = "lower" g, f |}
      \\ c2. >>
  
}
