Which technical limitation do you mean exactly?
Correct me if I'm wrong, but it seems that lyrics can't be added to a
variable that is chopped up in tags. In the example below (similar to
my first one), measures 1 to 4 have lyrics but 5 and onwards don't,
even using the same staff.
I think this comes from the "\new Voice" in the definition of 'melody'.
We want one continuous voice to which the lyrics can then get attached;
it seems that starting a /new/ voice (albeit with the same name as
before) in the middle of the piece stops to \lyricsto mechanism from
working.
Try:
%%SOF
\version "2.26.0"
melody = {
\tag verse { c''1 d'' e'' f'' }
\tag refrain { g'1 a' b' }
} % end var & voice
singer = {
\new Staff \new Voice = melody {
\keepWithTag verse \melody
\keepWithTag refrain \melody
}
}
niceLyrics = \lyricmode { I a e a o o o }
singerAndLyrics = {
<<
\singer
\new Lyrics \lyricsto melody { \niceLyrics }
>>
}
\score { \singerAndLyrics }
