It is not unusual to have instruments double some vocal parts and the slurs might be a playing instruction for them. It is strange that in the last example the slur is present only in one of two parallel voices. Looks almost like a "I can just hear how the honorable Mrs Staccatalto is going to mangle her part, so let's put a slur just into the part she is going to sing on opening night" slur. -- David Kastrup _______________________________________________ lilypond-user mailing list [email protected] http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user
