Jerry,
As a singer, I would expect to see the lyrics for the upstem voice
to be above the staff, and the downstem voice below the staff.
It's been a while, but I think it would need to be something like this:
\score {
<<
\new Staff = "lead"
<<
\new Voice = "top" { \voiceOne f'4 c''4 c''2 }
\new Voice = "bottom" { \voiceTwo r2 d'4 e'4 }
>>
\new Lyrics \with {
alignAboveContext = "lead"
\override VerticalAxisGroup #'staff-affinity = #DOWN
} \lyricsto "top" {\lyricmode { Hel -- lo world! }}
\new Lyrics \lyricsto "bottom" {\lyricmode { How -- dy! }}
>>
}
I'm sure there's a more elegant solution.
Regards,
Rick

I'm writing up a Lead Sheet and the Bridge section has a counter-melody with its own lyrics. I hacked it together using the _"" function, but I hope there's a better way to do it. Please enlighten me or direct me to the correct procedure. Attached is a
sample of the coding and the results I've been able to achieve. (The 'Counter-Melody-Coding.png is in case someone can't open the .docx.)
Thanks.
Jerry
