This helps a lot to see what you are trying to do. If I were
transcribing this, instead of using \skip to get the lyrics to the right
place, I would do this:
1. Create two music expressions, one for the intro and one for the
vocal part, and insert them in serial fashion in the same Staff context.
2. Put the Lyrics context in parallel with the staff, but assigned
specifically to the vocal part like this:
%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%
introMusic = \relative c' {
| r8 ees \tuplet 3/2 { d16 ees d } c8
| f4. f16 aes
| c8 c ~ c16 c bes c
| aes8 g4 ees8
| d8 c \tuplet 3/2 { c d ees }
| g8 f ~ f8. f16
| f8 b, ~ b16 c d b
| c2 ~
| c2 ~
| c4.
}
vocalMusic = \relative c'' {
g8
| c8 c16 c c8 c
| c8 aes4.
% etc.
}
vocalLyrics = \lyricmode {
Cha -- ma -- va -- se Car -- men -- ci -- ta
% etc.
}
\score {
<<
\new Staff {
\clef treble
\time 2/4
\key ees \major
\introMusic
\new Voice = "soloist" \vocalMusic
}
\new Lyrics \lyricsto "soloist" \vocalLyrics
>>
\layout {}
}
%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%
FWIW,
Abraham
