Can't you first define the music of each voices in, say Aaux and Baux, and then building A and B and the quotes refering to Aaux and Baux? Aaux = { ... } Baux = { ... } A = << Aaux { ... \quote "qB" 1 ... } >> B = << Baux { ... \quote "qA" 1 ... } >> \addquote "qA" \Aaux \addquote "qB" \Baux (disclaimer: I don't know how \quote and \addquote works) nicolas _______________________________________________ lilypond-devel mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-devel
