I'd second Werner. Though, it's already possible to do: { \new Voice = "intro" { R1*4 \break } \new Voice \with { \consists "Ambitus_engraver" } \relative c' { \override AmbitusNoteHead.break-visibility = ##(#f #f #t) \override AmbitusLine.break-visibility = ##(#f #f #t) c4 d e f g a b c | \break b2 c | d1 } } alas not very convenient.
