Oh dear, I did some testing yesterday, and I thought I had it figured out
following Carl's model above, but today I tried adding lyrics, and I get an
error: " programming error: Moment is not increasing. Aborting
interpretation." I have tried to make a sample following the model above, and
for simplicity's sake I have brought it down to a single clef. Try this and it
will work beautifully (I'm on 2.16.2 and Mac OS 10.8.5) :
\version "2.16.2"
sopVerse = \relative c' {
\time 3/4
\voiceOne
c4^"Verses" <c d> <c e>
}
altoVerse = \relative c' {
\voiceTwo
c4 s2
}
sopChorus = \relative f' {
\voiceOne
f4^"Chorus" <f g> <f a>
}
altoChorus = \relative f' {
\voiceTwo
f4 s2
}
\score {
\new Staff = "top" \relative c' {
<<
\new Voice = "sopVerse" { \sopVerse }
\new Voice = "altoVerse" { \altoVerse }
% \new Lyrics \lyricsto "sopVerse" { one two three }
>>
<<
\new Voice = "sopChorus" { \sopChorus }
\new Voice = "altoChorus" { \altoChorus }
% \new Lyrics \lyricsto "sopChorus" { four five six }
>>
}
}
That works like you would expect, but uncomment the two "\new Lyrics" lines and
it will cause the error. Is there something wrong with the way it is laid out?
I tried really hard to mimic Carl's model, and I can't find that I'm missing
anything.
