of course you can add the text spanner engraver to the Score: \layout{ \context{ \Score \consists Text_spanner_engraver } \context{ \Voice \remove Text_spanner_engraver } } if you plan to use spanners in the voices too you can not remove the Text_spanner_engraver from the Voice and you would have to \override the Voice.TextSpanner with empty properties each time you override a Score.TextSpanner (this could be tedious...)
