Dear LilyPond developers,
Kieren,
We have had a discussion one year ago about a project to rewrite the
<< { ... } \\ { ... } >>
so it behaves exactly like
<<
{
% continuation of the "main" Voice from outside the polyphony
\voiceOne
...
}
\context Voice = "2" {
\voiceTwo
...
}
>> \oneVoice
That would kinda solve the issue that what is inside the
<< { ... } \\ { ... } >> construct is in different voices than
the non-polyphonic voice from outside, thus forbidding slurs etc.
from outside to inside the polyphonic passage.
Slurs, ties etc from outside to the second voice would still be
forbidden. The problem really is that Lilypond's notion of continuity
(we have that also in repeat alternatives, codas and similar) is too
naive.
But if we simply said this in the docs it would make it clear it's at least
possible. For me, the most annoying aspect of this behaviour is that lyrics
aren't continuous across the initial voice and the implicit voices, and when
you're setting songs that's a real pain.
