I want to set a simple homophonic choir piece, with 4 voices on two staffs and
the lyrics in between. When any of the voices has a melisma, I want the text
to align correctly (not just when the soprano has a melisma), and also
extender lines to be drawn correctly.
To achieve this (without changing associatedVoice each and every time another
voice has a melisma) I try to plant all voices onto each other in one voice
and have the lyrics attach to that voice. Of course, I don't want that voice
to print.
\version"2.11"
sop = {a'2 b'4( a')}
alt = {g'4( f') g'2}
lyr = \lyricmode { One __ Two __ }
\score { <<
\new Staff << \sop \\ \alt >>
\new Devnull \new Voice = devnull << \sop \alt >>
\new Lyrics \lyricsto devnull \lyr
>> }
But alas, this does not work, because the Devnull does not want to swallow
other contexts. But \lyricsto doesn't want to attach to a Devnull directly.
Is there a way to print the stacked voice in a normal staff, but remove that
staff from view?
