Re: addl. normal staff (ossia) in drummode or DrumStaff context

[Uwe Falke]

Hm, this works in my simple example. Thank you. However, it does not  
so for what I really want to do - sorry for having oversimplified.
I just sent another example which is a snippet of the real score,  
employing two  \DrumVoice contexts, and that might be the turning  
point: I read :
 "This context is a ‘bottom’ context; it cannot contain other contexts. "

Does this break my neck?
