I've come across the need to temporarily split lyrics into two
"stanzas" (in repeated sections).
The code I am confronted with does this by using some kind of polyphony
construct, but this ends up creating a new \Lyrics context that is
added below the lowest staff instead of directly below the original
Lyrics context:
%%%
\version "2.19.80"
notesA = \relative {
\autoBeamOff
c'' d e d | c8 [ b ] c d c4 g
}
notesB = \relative {
c' d e d | c b c e
}
words = \lyricmode {
A B C D
<<
{
e -- f g
}
\new Lyrics {
E F G
}
>>
C G
}
\score {
<<
\new Staff \new Voice = "upper" \notesA
\new Lyrics \lyricsto "upper" \words
\new Staff \new Voice = "lower" \notesB
>>
}
%%%
How can I make sure the split lyrics end up next to each other?
There is a nuisance with the second associated lyric voice starting too
late, so you have to compensate somehow, perhaps like this:
\version "2.19.80"
notesA = \relative {
\autoBeamOff
c'' d e d | c8 [ b ] c d c4 g
}
notesB = \relative {
c' d e d | c b c e
}
words = \lyricmode {
A B C
<<
{
D e -- f g
}
\new Lyrics \with { alignBelowContext = "LyricsA" }
{
\lyricsto "upper" { E -- F G }
}
>>
C G
}
\score {
<<
\new Staff \new Voice = "upper" \notesA
\new Lyrics = "LyricsA" \lyricsto "upper" \words
\new Staff \new Voice = "lower" \notesB
>>
}
