This first template almost does what I want (SATB + piano + one stanza): global = { \key d \major \time 4/4 } sopranoMusic = \relative c' { \clef "treble" r4 d2 a4 } sopranoWords = \lyricmode { Words here } altoMusic = \relative c' { \clef "treble" r4 a2 a4 } altoWords = \sopranoWords tenorMusic = \relative c' { \clef "treble" r4 fis2 e4 } tenorWords = \sopranoWords bassMusic = \relative c' { \clef "bass" r4 d2 cis4 } bassWords = \sopranoWords upper = \relative c' { \clef "treble" \global r4 <a d fis>2 <a e' a>4 } lower = \relative c, { \clef "bass" \global <d d'>4 <d d'>2 <cis cis'>4 } \score { << \new ChoirStaff << \new Staff = "sopranos" << \set Staff.instrumentName = #"Soprano" \new Voice = "sopranos" { \global \sopranoMusic } >> \new Lyrics \lyricsto "sopranos" { \sopranoWords } \new Staff = "altos" << \set Staff.instrumentName = #"Alto" \new Voice = "altos" { \global \altoMusic } >> \new Lyrics \lyricsto "altos" { \altoWords } \new Staff = "tenors" << \set Staff.instrumentName = #"Tenor" \new Voice = "tenors" { \global \tenorMusic } >> \new Lyrics \lyricsto "tenors" { \tenorWords } \new Staff = "basses" << \set Staff.instrumentName = #"Bass" \new Voice = "basses" { \global \bassMusic } >> \new Lyrics \lyricsto "basses" { \bassWords } >> \new PianoStaff << \set PianoStaff.instrumentName = #"Piano " \new Staff = "upper" \upper \new Staff = "lower" \lower >> >> } But I would need chords for the soprano part and more stanzas for each staff, as this second template has it: verseI = \lyricmode { \set stanza = #"1." This is the first verse } verseII = \lyricmode { \set stanza = #"2." This is the second verse. } verseIII = \lyricmode { \set stanza = #"3." This is the third verse } verseIV = \lyricmode { \set stanza = #"4." This is the fourth verse } theChords = \chordmode { c2 g4 c } staffMelody = \relative c' { \key c \major \clef treble c4 d8 e f4 g \bar "|." } \score { << \context ChordNames { \theChords } \new Staff { \context Voice = "voiceMelody" { \staffMelody } } \new Lyrics = "lyricsI" { \lyricsto "voiceMelody" \verseI } \new Lyrics = "lyricsII" { \lyricsto "voiceMelody" \verseII } \new Lyrics = "lyricsIII" { \lyricsto "voiceMelody" \verseIII } \new Lyrics = "lyricsIV" { \lyricsto "voiceMelody" \verseIV } >> } I would like to combine these two, but unfortunately I couldn't figure it out how.
