Hi List, I'm taking the plunge to write a pretty big orchestra piece with lilypond (contemporary music) and am wondering how to organize the parts: There will be sections in the piece where e.g. the first violins are split (maybe sometimes only for a couple of bars and up to 14 different parts).

I have been unsuccessful in ending the dashed slur for divisi lyrics. This is the melody for "Silent Night". The English translation of the third stanza is ametrical and so the dashes slur is needed, but this is followed by two melismatic phrases at the end that need solid slurs. TIA, David Olso
