The short answer is that this is used for single-staff polyphony, but since giving a short answer is cheating, I won't reveal it until you have read the manual :-) Another point are the rules of the \relative mode when you have polyphony/chord constructions (how to use , and ' properly) See: http://lilypond.org/doc/v2.11/Documentation/user/lilypond/Relative-octaves Or rather the address that Mats gave, which is in the development manual, but which concerning this particular section applies to any version of Lilypond.

Each note is calculated relative to the note immediately preceding it. \relative { noteA noteB \\ noteC noteD } noteC is relative to noteB, not noteA; noteD is relative to noteC, not noteB or noteA. (from the new manual 3.2.1 I'm seeing Voices) These issues are described to some extent in the section on Explicitly instantiating voices. this chapter indeed answers my questions thank you for the help ole ___ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user

I always use the search function of the lilypond.pdf and most of the times I found an example that covers what I'am after. I find this most convenient (to work with examples) e.g. I immediatly understood the example Mats mailed me so maybe it would be a good idea to include it to the manual...

Re: typeset lyrics
One solution is described in section Divisi Lyrics, namely to use different Voice contexts for the different parts of music. Notice that you have to keep the original Voice context alive over the 6 measures using s1*6. /Mats Ole Schmidt wrote: I have to typeset lyrics for the first time.
