No, it doesn't, does it. I missed the part in your original post where you
mentioned the choir staff bit. With a GrandStaff the span bar counts as a
single bar line, which you won't have in a ChoirStaff. So what we want
(maybe?) is something that'll put the fermata above the bar line in the
upper staff, and below the bar line in the lower staff. Am I understanding
correctly that's what you're after? If so, try:
upFermata = {
\once \set Staff.caesuraType = #'((underlying-bar-line . "||"))
\once \set Staff.caesuraTypeTransform = ##f
\caesura ^\fermata
}
downFermata = {
\once \set Staff.caesuraType = #'((underlying-bar-line . "||"))
\once \set Staff.caesuraTypeTransform = ##f
\caesura _\fermata
}
musicA = {
f'1 \upFermata
R1
f'2 \upFermata f'2
R1
b'1 \upFermata \fine
}
musicB = {
f'1 \downFermata
R1
f'2 \downFermata f'2
R1
b'1 \downFermata \fine
}
\new ChoirStaff <<
\new Staff \musicA
\new Staff \musicB
>>
Maybe that'll get a little closer to what you're after.
