Subject: Lyrics in polyphony with ties in second voice
Hi.
I'm hoping someone can help me figure out how to notate this.
I am creating a lead sheet that has vocal line with lyrics. Some sections have
just the melody, and other sections have harmonies under the melody.
In general, I have been having success using this pattern for going into and
out of polyphony, while keeping the lyrics associated with the melody:
melody = \relative c'' {
c1 << { \voiceOne d } { b1 } >> | \oneVoice e1 |
}
I know that this is not what you asked for, because you want the harmony stems
to go up.
But this is the way I set it; I think it’s clearer, because it points out the
fact that the tied notes need to be handled differently from the melody notes.
\version "2.19.80"
words = \lyricmode {
One, two and three four
}
melody = \relative c'' {
\time 3/4
g2.^"Use partcombine and NullVoice" | g8 a f2 ~ | 2. | e2. \bar "|."
}
harmony = \relative c'{
\time 3/4
s2. |
<d b>2. ~ | 2.
}
combined = \partcombine \melody \harmony
\book {
\header { title = "Use partcombine and NullVoice" }
\score {
<<
\new Staff = "upper" \with {
printPartCombineTexts = ##f
}<<
\new Voice = "lead" {
\combined
}
\new NullVoice = "synch" {
\melody
}
>>
\new Lyrics \with { alignAboveContext = "staff" } {
\lyricsto "synch" { \words }
}
>>
\layout {
}
}
}
