Hello Phil, thanks for reply. I tried to fix this with \skip as well as with \melisma. Unfortunately both failed.
When I use \skip I get near to the expected result. Inside the cadenza I have
to use manual beaming. As long as I leave the last four quavers without beaming
brackets Lilypond sets the lyrics fine. When I try to put the brackets to the
quavers, the lyrics disappear although I adapt the \skip repeat count
accordingly.
When I use \melisma and \melismaEnd I get the same bad result as I got with the
slur. Removing the cadenza lets the lyrics appear. But there is really a
cadenza. (see autograph)
Additionally the first variant with \skip compiles completely different with
Lilypond 2.14.2. It has the same lyrics problem, but the strange line break is
new with 2.15.40.
Regards
Helge

Please check the documentation for \skip or \melisma which should do what
you want.
