Just a short remark. Basically the music you showed in the example is a
two-voice polyphony. So I would wrap each voice in *one* Voice
expression from start to end:
<<
{
%all the music for the upper voice
}
\new Voice
{
%all the music for the lower voice
}
>>
instead of creating this polyphony construct newly for each measure.
