Hi all,
I tried that, without any success. It doesn't seem to matter where or when I declare the lyrics context, it just fails.
my code looks now like this:
\new ChoirStaff {
<<
\new Staff {
\notes \relative c' {
\key g \major
\context Lyrics = stemeenlyrics { s1 }
\context Voice = melodietwee \relative c' {
s4 | s 2.*15 | s2
d4 | g g8 a g fis | e4 e e | a4 a8 b a g | fis4 d d | b'4 b8 c b a |
g4 e d8 d | e4 a fis | g2 d4 | g g g | fis2 fis4 | g fis e | d2 a'4 |
b4 a8 a g g | d'4 d, d8 d | e4 a fis | b g c | a d b
}
\lyricsto "melodietwee" \context Lyrics = stemeenlyrics {
We wish you a mer -- ry Christ -- mas, we wish you a
mer -- ry Christ -- mas, we wish you a mer -- ry Christ -- mas
and a hap -- py new year. Glad ti -- dings we bring to you and your kin.
We wish you a mer -- ry Christ -- mas and a hap -- py new year.
}
}
}
\new Staff {
\notes \relative c'{
\key g \major
\context Lyrics = stemtweelyrics { s1 }
\context Voice = stemtwee \relative c' {
s4 | s 2.*15 | s2
d4 | g, b d | e e8 d c b | a4 c e | fis fis8 e d c | b4 d fis |
g g8 fis e d | c4 a d | g,2 d'4 | g,8 a b c d e | fis4. e8 d4 |
b2 cis4 | d2 a'4 | b a g | d' d, d | e a fis | b g c | a d b
}
\lyricsto "stemtwee" \context Lyrics = stemtweelyrics {
We wish you a mer -- ry Christ -- mas, we wish you a
mer -- ry Christ -- mas, we wish you a mer -- ry Christ -- mas
and a hap -- py new year. Glad ti -- dings we bring to you and your kin.
We wish you a mer -- ry Christ -- mas and a hap -- py new year.
}
}
}
>> }
As I read the documentation this should work. I'm getting everything from bar check failed to junking ... event.
What goes wrong ??

Hello Maurits,
I recognized the problem and I knew it had to do with the way you define
your staffs and your lyrics. So, I rearranged it a little bit and that
works.
The way I read the documentation, the lyrics should be
created outside the staff context. and you defined, as far as I could see
it,
a Voice context and a lyrics context in a Voice; I'am amazed it worked
anyway in the original situation
Have fun! Ruud van Silfhout

Hi all,
I run into a problem setting music for choir. I searched all archives, all wiki pages but nothing turned up.
When you are setting music for choir, you sometimes have a first part that is for one voice only and repeated a few times (due to multiple verses). After that the verse is repeated, but this time with an extra voice written to it.
The setting of the music is not a problem, but when you are trying to add lyrics there occurs something strange.
The song in question is "We wish you a merry Christmas". I wrote a simple second voice to the last verse. Setting the music in lilypond was not difficult, so was setting the lyrics for the first three verses.
I used a \new Staff to set those first three verses.
To set the last verse, I used a new Choirstaff. Inside this Choirstaff I define two new staves. Because every voice in every staff has its own lyrics, I define the lyrics in each staff.
What happens is this: If you use the code as showed below, a new staff is created without a key signature and the lyrics are aligned correctly, namely directly below the notes to which the lyrics belong to.
If you include the key signature ( \key g \major ) (like in the second staff definition) the lyrics are misplaced, namely under the second staff
I included both versions, namely with key signature definition and without. I include both the .ly files. You can also find all files at http://www2.hku.nl/~maurits/lilypond/
The files with lyricsgoed are with the lyrics aligned correctly. The files with lyricsverkeerd are with the key signature and with the misplaced lyrics.
I use Lilypond 2.2.5 for Mac OS X and PC and both render the same kind of problem.
Anyone recognize this problem ??
