The lyrics are aligned to the notes from one voice. The problem is that << \\ >> create new voices implicitly (named "1" and "2"), and the f'2 etc. belong to the default voice "". I would suggest that you use \lyricsto, and avoid the <<\\>> syntax. Somethign like: << \new Staff \context Voice = melody { .. f'2 ... << \context Voice = other { \voiceOne \tiny g ... } \context Voice=melody { \voiceTwo g,2 ... } >> \oneVoice r4 ... } \lyricsto melody { Al ... } >> -- Erik _______________________________________________ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user
