Lyric placement and tempo woesYou've got:
\relative c''
\tempo "Allegretto con moto"
{
So the music that immediately follows the \relative is your \tempo marking, so
it is only that that the \relative applies to. If you wrote
\tempo "Allegretto con moto"
\relative c''
{
music
}
The \relative would apply to everything in the { } block

Subject: Lyric placement and tempo woes
More newbie problems:
1) I'm trying to arrange a part song with lyrics for each stave. The snippet
below puts the lyrics at the bottom of all the staves - but I seem to be
copying the manual. See Warlock2OK attached.
2) If I add a tempo indication (delete the "%") the pitch changes (see
Warlock2WRONG attached) - this is the first occasion I've heard that adding a
tempo mark changes a mezzo-soprano into a baritone - she won't be happy!
Any help welcome.
Regards,
Peter
