How can I properly insert lyrics to a 4-part choral setting?

[marcelo martin]

Hello,   I am using "Lilypond" version 1.4.12 under windows XP and have trouble with the output of lyrics in a choral setting.   The ".midi" file plays the four parts perfectly well, and the ".ps" file displays the four staves and the notes exactly as expected. The problem is that the lyrics for alto, tenor and bass end up being displayed under the soprano staff, together with the soprano lyrics. I get this warning from "ly2dvi":   "Huh? Melismatic note found to have associated lyrics"   I have looked everywhere for an example on how to set a choral score, but seem to have missed it.   Here I include the "score" part of the ".ly" file I´m working on. I will very much appreciate your kind suggestions on this matter.   Thanks a lot,   Marcelo Martin :)   --------------------------------------------------- \score {\context ChoirStaff = coro <   \addlyrics         \context Staff = sop {        \property Staff.automaticMelismata = ##t        \property Staff.noAutoBeaming= ##t        \sopranoMel   } % sop   \context Lyrics \sopranoLyr   \addlyrics          \context Staff = alto {          \property Staff.automaticMelismata = ##t          \property Staff.noAutoBeaming= ##t          \altoMel   } % alto    \context Lyrics \altoLyr   \addlyrics         \context Staff = tenor {         \property Staff.automaticMelismata = ##t         \property Staff.noAutoBeaming= ##t         \tenorMel   } % tenor    \context Lyrics \tenorLyr   \addlyrics         \context Staff = bass {         \property Staff.automaticMelismata = ##t         \property Staff.noAutoBeaming= ##t         \bassMel   } % bass    \context Lyrics \bassLyr   > % coro   \paper {}   \midi {\tempo 4=120} } % score
