And using slurs for melismas (which are interpreted as melismas by
lilypond) as in
\relative c'' {
r2 d4 g,8 g
c8 c c c b16(
a b c b c a b
g16 fis g a g b a b c b c d c d b c
a4)
r r2
}
\addlyrics { For un -- to us a child is born, __ }
This way there is no need of the \melisma command in common modern practice.
Also, manual beams do melismas automatically (it is not a solution for
long melismas)
\relative c'{
\autoBeamOff
e8 e f16[ g f e] f4 r
}
\addlyrics
{ A me -- lis -- ma. }
