The total duration of the first measure has to match between the parts (both to make LilyPond and the musicians happy). What do you want to see in the typeset output? I would either use a partial measure in both parts so the second part started with r8 r4 r2 or use a full measure in both parts, so the first part started with r8 g bes g ...
If you absolutely want to typeset a full measure rest in the second part and only a partial measure in the first part, you could read section "Scaling durations" for a solution. /Mats Francesco Spiga wrote:
I'm editing a three-part fugue, and I'm typing notes in three separate files. The first voice starts with a partial measure, so the two first maesures are: \partial8*7 g'8 bes g a a c bes16 a bes8 ees ees ees a, d d d The second voice enters at measure 2. As the first measure has to be empty in separate part, I typed: R1 r4 g'2 f4 When I try to put all voices in a score, Lilypond does'nt recognise the first (partial) measure of the first voice as the empty one of the second voice, so alignment between staves is completely wrong. How could I work out this problem? Thanks you.
