etc. Then, Part B should follow on from Part A (for example, a verse
and chorus). I have managed to get the music to be placed correctly,
but I have so far had no success getting the words of Part B appearing
anywhere, let alone with the correct music. Is there an example
anywhere showing this being done?
\context Lyrics = lyricsname \lyricsto part { \sopWordsPartA \sopWordsPartB }
(I think--I didn't test it.)
Also, can someone please explain
the significance of the "{ s1 }" in the "\new Lyrics" lines? I cannot
find any reference to this anywhere in the manual.
That's one way I know this isn't my template--I am really not fond of
setting up parts that way. What s1 does is to create 4 beats (i.e., a
whole note) worth of silence, so
\new Lyrics = "sopranos" { s1 }
creates a new context for lyrics with, essentially, nothing in it. The later
\context Lyrics = sopranos etc.
line goes back and fills it in.
Hope that helps.
Geoff
