I wanted to point you to the documentation, but this is missing from
the tutorial, as it seems.

Voices (and other contexts) are identified by name.  If you want two
voices, you must give them different names.  Two voices on one staff
that have the same name, are the same voice.  You can use this to
separate articulation and notes, eg.

Try this:

\score {
\context Staff=sa \notes <
\context Voice=va {
    \stemUp
         c''4 c''4 c''4 c''4
}
\context Voice=vb {
    \stemDown
e''8 e''8 e''8 e''8 e''8 e''8 e''8 e''8
}
 >
\paper {}
}

Jan.
