The simplest way to do this is to use 2 explicit voices all the way through, and use spacer rests in the second voice where it has no notes. Use \oneVoice \voiceOne and \voiceTwo to change between using the explicit voices and the parts where the second voice is silent.
If this can't be used for some reason, I think you can temporarily create a single new voice, but would need to check how this is done.

My normal approach when setting instrumental music does not work here, because the lyrics do not follow the notes properly. Here's my snippet. http://www.lilybin.com/hjtorv/1 The text "la catena" should match to the notes in measures 1 and 2. "Che non cerca" should follow starting on measure 3. I think I understand what the problem is, but I don't know how to fix it. There are three different voices, and the lyrics are following only one of them. There is one voice that contains the notes in measures 1, 3 and 4, and then two more voices for the notes in measure 2. I've had the same problem before when having to tie and slur between divisi and non-divisi sections of a score. Hopefully there is a sane method of getting this to work that I'm not aware of. - Hayden Muhl ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ _______________________________________________ lilypond-user mailing list [email protected] https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user
