Hi Guy,
> Sorry, Knute -- Harm's suggestion is less work LOL
Even less work is to have David K’s \after function in your toolbox:
\version "2.19.83"
\language "english"
after =
#(define-music-function (parser location t e m)
(ly:duration? ly:music? ly:music?)
#{
\context Bottom <<
#m
{ \skip $t <> -\tweak extra-spacing-width #empty-interval $e }
>>
#})
\score {
<<
\new Staff {
c'2^\< a2 c'2^\mf^\> \after 4 \p f'2
c'2^\< a2 c'2^\mf^\> \after 4 \p f'2
}
\new Staff {
a2^\< f2 a2^\mf^\> c'4( bf) ^\p
a2^\< f2 a2^\mf^\> c'4( bf)^\p
}
\addlyrics {
Al -- le -- lu -- ia
Al -- le -- lu -- ia
}
>>
}
Hope that helps!
Kieren.
