Thank you, Trevor. That is a neat solution.

defining melismas differently in different stanzas
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 } } \version 2.13.23 Thanks -- View this message in context: http://old.nabble.com/defining-melismas-differently-in-different-stanzas-tp31263631p31263631.html Sent from the Gnu - Lilypond - User mailing list archive at Nabble.com. ___ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user

Bar check warning
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.
