I think this is one way of doing it (assuming I understand what you were looking for). I had to put that bit of padding in there so that the descenders of 'mf' and 'p' didn't smash into the lyrics: %%% code begin \score { << \new Dynamics \with { \override VerticalAxisGroup.nonstaff-nonstaff-spacing = #'((padding . 1)) } { \partial 4 a'4^\mf^\dim ^"Solo, Remaining voices Ooos" \bar "||" a'4. bf'8 c''4 a' | g'2 f'\p | } \new Staff = "sopranos" << << \new Voice = "Solo" { \voiceOne { \partial 4 a'4 \bar "||" a'4. bf'8 c''4 a' | g'2 f' | } } \new Lyrics \with { alignAboveContext = #"sopranos" } \lyricsto "Solo" { Yet what I can I give Him, } \new Voice = "sopranoOoos" { \voiceTwo { \partial 4 f'4( ~ | f'4. g'8 a'4 f' | f'2 d') | } } \new Lyrics \lyricsto "sopranoOoos" { Ooo } >> \bar "|." >> >> \layout { } } %%%% code end Cheers, Tyler _______________________________________________ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user
