Dear list,
Could anyone of you please explain why I need to state `\lyricsto' for every piece within my lyrics context? I assumed that stating it once on the top-level would be sufficient.
This is what I'm talking about:
\version "2.4.0"
global = { \key c \major \time 4/4 }
startText = \lyricmode { Six small words to start with }
stanzaOne = \lyricmode { \set stanza = "1." first stanza } stanzaTwo = \lyricmode { \set stanza = "2." second stanza } stanzaThree = \lyricmode { \set stanza = "3." third stanza }
finishText = \lyricmode { Some fi -- nal words }
music = \relative c' { c4 d e c c d e c e f g g }
\score { \context Staff = everybody << \context Voice = everyone { \voiceOne << \global \music >> } \context Lyrics = everyone \lyricsto everyone \lyricmode { \startText << \lyricsto everyone \stanzaOne % why is \lyricsto needed? \new Lyrics \lyricsto everyone \stanzaTwo \new Lyrics \lyricsto everyone \stanzaThree >> \lyricsto everyone \finishText } >> }
Kind regards,
