Yeah, that's what I concluded, but only after I posted, naturally. ;-)

(There are several verses and I haven't entered, or even read them yet. So,
I don't yet know which ones will be syllabically different. But when David
asked "Why?" I looked again and it didn't make sense. My bad.)

 WHY would you merge the B quarter-note with the B eighth-note?  They are
 not even in the same time-step.



Then perhaps once again, I'm misreading what I'm transcribing... Wouldn't be 
the first time... Here's what I'm trying to reproduce:



I think that's a misprint in the source, and the upstem should have a flag.  I 
presume that below there are two sets of words with different numbers of 
syllables which require different grouping of the notes.

Never mind. I see it appears to be a typo in the original. That's what
I get for not paying enough attention.

How do I merge a quarter-note with the second eighth-note of a pair?

2022-04-12 Thread Kevin Cole
I think an example will make the question clearer:  How do I merge the
B quarter-note with the B eighth-note following the D eighth-note
below?

%%%
\version "2.20.0"
\language "english"

\layout {
  \autoBeamOff
}

global = {
  \time 4/4
  \mergeDifferentlyHeadedOn
}

melody = {
  \relative {
\global

<<
  { \voiceOne b'4 }
  \new Voice
  { \voiceTwo d,8[( b'8]) }
>>
\oneVoice
a8. g16 g4 r8 g8   |
\bar "|."
  }
}

\score {
\new Staff { \melody }
}
%%%
