How about using separate voices: \version "2.16.1" altonotesUp = \relative c' { s1*3 s2 \voiceOne fis8( a) b4~ | b a( fis d) | fis1 \oneVoice s1*3 \voiceOne d8[^\markup { \italic "cresc. poco a poco" } e] fis2.~( | fis2 e4.) \oneVoice s4 } altonotesDown = \relative c' { fis2\p e | d cis | d cis | b \voiceTwo fis'2~ | fis4 e( cis8 b a4) | a1 | \oneVoice r4 d\f d4. fis8 | fis1 | r1 | \voiceTwo r1 | r2 cis8 d e \oneVoice e8~ | e4 } altowordsUp = \lyricmode { doo __ doo __ doo __ on Car -- ry on, __ } altowordsDown = \lyricmode { cooled my head and warmed my heart doo __ doo __ on this road to -- night. Nev -- er run, } \score { \new ChoirStaff << \new Staff = "alto" \with { instrumentName = A } << \new Voice = "altoUp" \altonotesUp \new Voice = "altoDown" \altonotesDown >> \new Lyrics \with { alignAboveContext = alto } \lyricsto "altoUp" \altowordsUp \new Lyrics \lyricsto "altoDown" \altowordsDown >> \layout {} } Cheers, Harm _______________________________________________ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user
