 Yes.  This is the purpose of the single underscore, which is
 placed in the stanza which contains the melisma, like this:
 
 { play. It __ _ might be the }
 
 See Multiple notes to one syllable in the Notation Reference
 to version 2.13 for an explanation of the five ways to indicate
 melismata:

 Below is the 3rd bar of Erroll Garner's Misty. The It in the 
 second
 stanza should coincide with the G and Ab of the first triplet.

 \include english.ly

 
 \new Voice = misty \relative c'' {
 \key ef \major
 { c2 \times 2/3 { r8 g af } \times 2/3 { c ef g } }
 }

 \new Lyrics\lyricsto misty {
 \set stanza = 1.
 { tree, and I feel like I'm }
 }

 \new Lyrics\lyricsto misty {
 \set stanza = 2.
 { play. It __ might be the }
 }


 \version 2.13.23

 Thanks

defining melismas differently in different stanzas

2011-03-28 Thread njrees

I searched first but didnt see this.

Is there a way to define melismas  differently in different stanzas?
I want to define a melisma where one syllable lasts for more than one note
in only one of the stanzas. The only way I know to do this is to put
\melisma and \melismaEnd in the voice definition in which case it will
apply to all stanzas. 


Below is the 3rd bar of Erroll Garner's Misty. The It in the second
stanza should coincide with the G and Ab of the first triplet.

\include english.ly


\new Voice = misty \relative c'' {
\key ef \major
{ c2 \times 2/3 { r8 g af } \times 2/3 { c ef g } }
}

\new Lyrics\lyricsto misty {
\set stanza = 1.
{ tree, and I feel like I'm }
}

\new Lyrics\lyricsto misty {
\set stanza = 2.
{ play. It __ might be the }
}

 Here is your example, with the correct melismata:
 
 \include english.ly
 
 
 \new Voice = misty \relative c'' {
 \key ef \major
 { c2 \times 2/3 { r8 \slurDotted g( af) } \times 2/3 { c ef g } }
 }
 
 \new Lyrics\lyricsto misty {
 \set stanza = 1.
 { tree, \set ignoreMelismata = ##t and I \unset ignoreMelismata feel like
 I'm }
 }
 
 \new Lyrics\lyricsto misty {
 \set stanza = 2.
 { play. It __ might be the }
 }

 
 You can, of course, replace the slur ( and ) with \melisma and
 \melismaEnd if you don't like the visual slur.

Bar check warning

2011-03-18 Thread njrees

I am a new user.

I get a bar check warning from this snippet (Rogers and Hart's Have You Met
Miss Jones?)

If I delete the first bar, I don't get the warning. Is this a bug, or am I
doing something wrong?
(Do I have to represent the rest somehow?)

\key f \major

 The original posting contains a perfectly self-contained illustrative
 example.  I don't see that I can improve on that.  Add a subject line
 like \addlyrics misinterprets barchecks, and you are set.
