\lyricsto refits the durations. If you don't want to refit the durations (but specify durations explicitly in the lyrics), leave out the \lyricsto "one" command. In this particular case (everything is a quarter) you don't even need an explicit duration because the implicit duration of 4 throughout the piece fits quite well. -- David Kastrup _______________________________________________ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user
