Just off the top of my head - you may try explicitly naming all contexts involved, and use \new Lyrics with \lyricsto instead of \addlyrics (which is, i suppose, generally designed as a shortcutto be used with very straightforward music). Explicit naming of contexts gives you clear view of what's happening there. hth, Janek _______________________________________________ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user
