1. The score has four voises. All have their own stems. I find it

complicated to arrange stems/notes in the same order (right to

I personally would condense this down to one or possibly two voices.
Somebody else might have other suggestions.
No, that's not right. It's a polyphonic piece.LilyPond handles different
polyphonic voices very well, I think you can use \voiceOne etc. to
override default order.
I also tried this with \voiceOne etc (with version 2.8.8, admittedly),
and couldn't get the first chord to print as 4 different voices of which
three have upward stems. Lilypond gives me "warning: ignoring too many
clashing note columns", and collapses all three into one chord. If we
would have \voiceFive, that would solve the issue.
4. I have not found a way to make a tie from within a polyphonic passage
into a neiboring honophone section. I used a workaraond by keeping the
adjacent passage within the polyphonic sectin, but I would like to find a
way to avoid that.
The section on "Explicitly instantiating voices" (6.6.2. in my version)
gives an example for a slur. For your case, the first two quarter notes
might look like:
\voiceOne
<<
\new Voice="3" { \voiceThree b'4}
\new Voice="2" { \voiceTwo \stemUp d,}
\new Voice="4" { \voiceFour g,}
{ \tieUp g''4 ~ }
>>
\oneVoice g32[ f( es d c b a b64 g)]
then switch to voiceThree (for the horizontal placement at the next
quarter note):
\voiceThree
<<
\new Voice="1" { \voiceOne fis'4}
\new Voice="2" { \voiceTwo d,8 s }
{ \tieDown c'8[ ~ }
>>
\oneVoice \stemUp c32( d64 c b32 c] \stemNeutral c16.[\trill b64 c
d16 a])
Graham, I think he doesn't intend to be impolite. He thought you had
missed an important point in his question, and pointed that out maybe
too concisely.
