Hi Jerry,
Here is a MWE with ossia/lyrics:
\version "2.18.2"
OssiaLyrics = \lyricmode {
Ma -- gni -- fi -- cat
}
\new Staff
<<
\new Voice \relative c {
c''4 b d c
<<
{ c4 b d c }
\new Staff
<<
\new Voice = "V" \relative c'' { e4 d f e }
>>
>>
c4 b c2
}
\new Lyrics \lyricsto "V" \OssiaLyrics
>>
HTH,
Rémy

Hi all,
>
I expect this has been solved somewhere, but I can't find it. The documentation
is good at explaining how to do something in isolation, but not so good at
explaining how to do something in the middle of a different structure, such as
a choir staff.
>
Anyway, I have a choir staff to which I want to add an extra staff for the
Soprano I voices. I want the staff to appear at measure 27 and continue until
measure 41 and then stop. I want the extra staff to contain both music and
lyrics.
>
>
I was able to get the staff and music to work fairly well using a structure
suggested in a previous discussion on ossia staves. How can I get lyrics to go
with it? The structure follows. Sorry it's so long: I'm not sure where all the
commands need to be placed. If there's a more elegant solution, I'm all in
favor of it, even if it means restructuring the whole piece:
