Hi
I have a Mendelssohn choral work with german (de) and latin (lat)
lyrics. How can I achieve to set the latin lyrics in italics?
% works, but both lyrics are in regular/upright font
\new Lyrics \lyricsto "bass" { \bassDeVerse }
\new Lyrics \lyricsto "bass" { \bassLatVerse }
* sth, like this, does not work / compile error
\new Lyrics \lyricsto "bass" { \italic \bassLatVerse }
* works (but I'm aiming for italic, not tiny)
\new Lyrics \lyricsto "bass" { \tiny \bassLatVerse }
You should be able to adjust the font-shape using a \with block:
%%%%
\new Lyrics \with { \override LyricText.font-shape = #'italic }
%%%%
