Thank you Remy and Valentin for your replies 🙂
Unfortunately i still can't figure this out.
I tried separating each stanza into different variables, like so:
altoWordsOne = \lyricmode {
\set stanza = "1. "
% first verse and chorus
}
altoWordsTwo = \lyricmode {
\set stanza = "2. "
% second verse
}
altoWordsThree = \lyricmode {
\set stanza = "3."
% third verse
}
...and then squeezing it in here, like so:
\new Lyrics = "bass"
\context Lyrics = "tenor" \lyricsto "tenor" \sopWords
\context Lyrics = "lead" \lyricsto "lead" \altoWordsOne
\context Lyrics = "lead" \lyricsto "lead" \altoWordsTwo
\context Lyrics = "lead" \lyricsto "lead" \altoWordsThree
\context Lyrics = "baritone" \lyricsto "baritone" \tenorWords
\context Lyrics = "bass" \lyricsto "bass" \bassWords
You need to instantiate individual Lyrics contexts for each line of
text. Consider:
%%%%
\version "2.22.0"
affinityDown = \with { \override VerticalAxisGroup.staff-affinity =
#DOWN }
<< \new Lyrics = aboveI \with \affinityDown
\new Lyrics = aboveII \with \affinityDown
\new Staff \voices upper,lower
<< { \voiceOne b'8 c'' d''2. } \\
{ \voiceTwo g'4 fis' g'2 } >>
\new Lyrics = belowI
\new Lyrics = belowII
\context Lyrics = aboveI \lyricsto upper { Up -- per one }
\context Lyrics = aboveII \lyricsto upper { Up -- per two }
\context Lyrics = belowI \lyricsto lower { Low -- er one }
\context Lyrics = belowII \lyricsto lower { Low -- er two } >>
%%%%
\new Lyrics is used four times because we need four distinct Lyrics
lines (two stanzas each for two voices).
