I understand. Unfortunately I cannot find a way to use the remove-layer technique with \partcombine (see attached file). I'd like to hide the top staff while maintaining the staff group between bar 19-24 for the difficult passage. Is there a way to achieve this? In other words there are four notations that I'd need to achieve for divisi: unisono, divisi (a2, a3, etc.) on same voice & same staff, divisi on different voices & same staff, divisi on different staves. > > > Finally, adding a \shortInstrumentName in the StaffGroup gives an > > error, but the resulting pdf is otherwise correct. > > instrumentName and shortInstrumentName are both siple property > definitions, not variables or functions so the \ is not needed; just > instrumentName = "something".
