Hello,
I have alternative versions of lyrics text, which I would like to export
in different files (or \book blocks). The music, order of staves, etc.
is identical.
Ideally, I would want to do this as cleanly and with as little code
duplication as possible.
%%%
music = { c'4 d' e' }
lyricsOne = \lyricmode { do re mi }
lyricsTwo = \lyricmode { a b c }
%% Somehow, store the structure of the score in a variable and
substitute lyrics later?
%% This is not so bad, but the actual use case has more staves,
properties in \with, etc.
%% and the file has managed to get than 1,000 lines long (with the
actual notes and
%% lyrics being in different files; just the \books).
\book {
\new Staff << \music \addlyrics \lyricsOne \addlyrics \lyricsTwo >>
}
\book {
\new Staff << \music \addlyrics \lyricsOne >>
}
\book {
\new Staff << \music \addlyrics \lyricsTwo >>
}
%%%
Thank you.
