Thank you for your suggestion, Gilles.
I found that using \partcombine produced output that looked even worse for what
I wanted. When used on my actual composition (i.e. not the example I provided
in my original message), I found:
* sometimes tenor notes are in the upper stave when they should be in the lower
stave, or vice versa
* sometimes all four parts are in the top stave even though I intend the bass
to remain in the lower stave
* sometimes a bass quaver and a tenor crotchet are made to share a stem
* sometimes alto and tenor notes a second apart share a downward stem and are
both on the right-hand side of it.
However, I found a way to achieve my desired layout: putting the top 3 parts in
a << \\ \\ >> construct, thus:
%begin example
RH =
{
\change Staff = "rh"
\override NoteColumn #'force-hshift = #1
\stemDown
}
LH =
{
\change Staff = "lh"
\override NoteColumn #'force-hshift = #0.0
\stemUp
}
sat =
{
<<
{ c'' b' c'' c'' }
\\
{ e' g' g' e' }
\\
{ \LH g \RH f' e' \LH g }
>>
}
bas =
{
\clef bass
<<
\\
{ c d c c }
>>
}
\score
{
<<
\new PianoStaff <<
\new Staff = "rh" << \sat >>
\new Staff = "lh" << \bas >>
>>
>>
}
%end example
