Hi Chet,

Use manual beaming by enclosing the notes you want beamed in square brackets,
e.g.:
[c8 d] e f [g a] b c

Slurs only come single, by default. What you probably mean is the tie. Ties
connect notes that are held over (and thus can come in hordes for chords).
Slurs indicate a stream of notes that is to be played legato, and thus come
only as single items.

It's not by chance "Rock of Ages, cleft for me", is it (the opening symbol of
a musical line is called a clef)?
This is my score block for the purpose (with the lyrics attached to the alto,
in this case):
\score {
\context ChoirStaff = chorus <
\context Staff = women <
\property Staff.instrument = "Soprano/Alto"
\property Staff.instr = "S/A"
\property Staff.automaticMelismata = ##t
\Key
\clef treble
\context Voice = soprano {\voiceOne \sopranoVoice}
\addlyrics
\context Voice = alto {\voiceTwo \altoVoice}
\context Lyrics = bottom \choirLyrics
>
\context Staff = men <
\property Staff.instrument = "Tenor/Bass"
\property Staff.instr = "T/B"
\Key
\clef bass
\context Voice = tenor {\voiceOne \tenorVoice}
\context Voice = bass {\voiceTwo \bassVoice}
>
>
\midi {
\tempo 4=90
}
\paper {
linewidth = 15.0\cm
\translator { \HaraKiriStaffContext }
\translator {
\ScoreContext
BarNumber \override #'padding = #3
skipBars = ##t
}
}
}
Kind regards,
Amy
