Tim,
You can "insert" a second voice using the << // >> syntax explained here:

Subject: Tangled up in Lilypond syntax
I'm setting a fairly short song. It's sixteen measures, in the standard four
voice parts. I used Frescobaldi to set up the basic structure, so the syntax
I'm using comes from modifying what it put out.
What causes the grief is that the last measure in the soprano part is
polyphonic (or polyrythmic). That necessitated a second soprano voice, which
skips the first 15 measures and has three notes in the last measure.
Lower down, Frescobaldi generates this language:
sopranoVoicePart = \new Staff \with {
instrumentName = "Soprano"
midiInstrument = "choir aahs"
} { \sopranoVoice }
\addlyrics { \verseOne }
\addlyrics { \verseTwo }
Since I now had two soprano voices, I did:
sopranoVoicePart = \new Staff \with {
instrumentName = "Soprano"
midiInstrument = "choir aahs"
} { << \sopranoVoice \sopranoVoiceTwo >> } \addlyrics { \verseOne }
\addlyrics { \verseTwo }
which results in several error messages like this:
programing error: No spring between column 0 and next one
Makes no sense to me. It does create a PDF, but its all jumbled with titles,
staffs and notes printed on top of each other. And no words for the soprano
part at all.
I'm not an expert in Lilypond syntax, so I'm at a standstill. What do I need
to do to make this work?
Thanks
