I think if you use \VoiceOne and \VoiceTwo you should get what you are looking
for. I
regularly combine hymn harmonies from various sources into a single score and I
use
them to achieve that. Here's a few snippets from my standard file just showing
the right
hand (I place all the parts in one file where this came from, then I do the
score in a
second one and include the parts in it.)
% lilypond starts
% \melody and \alto are defined above
% as regular music expression blocks
%
global = { \time 2/2 }
Key = { \key ef \major }
rhUpper = \relative c'' {
\voiceOne
\Key
\mark \markup {HTC}
\melody
\bar "|."
}
rhLower = \relative c' {
\voiceTwo
\Key
\alto
}
PianoRH = {
\clef treble
\global
\set Staff.midiInstrument = "acoustic grand"
\context Staff <<
\context Voice = "one" \rhUpper
\context Voice = "two" \rhLower
>>
}
piano = {
\context PianoStaff <<
\set PianoStaff.instrument = #"Piano"
\set PianoStaff.minimumVerticalExtent = #'(-2 . 2)
#(set-accidental-style 'piano-cautionary)
\context Staff = "upper" \PianoRH
\context Staff = "lower" \PianoLH
>>
}
% lilypond ends
