Well spotted! In fact there are several other places where the lyric alignment was wrong. At the time I posted it it was a work-in-progress (for Christmas 2017, in fact), but thank you for helping with the final tweaks :) For interest, I attach the latest version, hopefully now almost correct, albeit several messy tweaks! Can you spot any other improvements? It will make a useful test as the various improvements to LP which you outline below take effect. One day maybe all the tweaks can be removed. > In fact, to solve this, one would need a simultaneous assignment of the > lyrics to all four voices they apply to.
