I also write polyphonic music, often with four voices.  I have a variable
for each voice that tends to stay in a particular voice, like \voiceOne,
but I often drop into \oneVoice and back if needed.  It's not unusual for
me to write:

\voiceTwo a4 b c d |
\oneVoice r2 \voiceTwo c4 d

...or something similar.  I don't think there's any pentalty for jumping
between a voice and \oneVoice over and over.

I also put breaks in their own variable, not in the music, if that helps.
