Here's one example of a solution, which contains one score with and one without the melody. Note that when you explicitly specify the duration of each lyrics syllable, then for melismas it should be the total duration of the melisma (which also specifies the duration of the -- ). As far as I know,

Please always tell what LilyPond version you use, otherwise you might get an answer that's irrelevant, since LilyPond is still evolving quickly from version to version. From your example it looks as if you use version 2.2 or older, so I'll assume 2.2 below. Did you read the section in the manual

Re: Spacing in Lyrics

2005-04-25 Thread Mats Bengtsson
If you provide a small example file, it's much easier to provide an answer. How do you write these characters in the input file? If you specify them using the TeX codes such as \k a, then LilyPond has no chance to calculate the correct metrics. However, if you input them into the file using latin2

A DrumStaff context can only contain DrumVoice contexts, not Lyrics contexts, so you confuse LilyPond. The following should work better: drumContents = { %%\set DrumStaff.instrument = #Drums \new DrumVoice { \voiceOne \up } \new DrumVoice { \voiceTwo \down } } \score {
