I am entering a song - the Beatle’s “Let It Be - into lilypond where there
there is a long repeat - “\repeat volta 4 {}”, but there are only 2
alternatives. Lillypond labels the first alternative “1-3”, and the second
alternative “4””
But in the song the first alternative is for stanzas 1 and 3, second
alternative for verses 2 and 4.
For those who recall the song the first and third verse ends with “Whis — per
words of wis — dom, let it be. (Verse 2) And when __“. The second and fourth
verses end with “There will an answer, let it be.”
I can’t figure out how to set the stanza numbers for the first alternative to
“1.3”, and for the second alternative to “2.4”. I looked at the manual, and
the only info I found seemed to be pretty complicated, repeatCommands to a
scheme style list, which has some pretty obscure syntax for a non-scheme
programmer.
Is there some simple way to do this?
