What you need instead of the << { } \\ { } >> construct is << { } \new
Voice { } >>. The second form keeps the current context going in the first
set of braces.
%%%
\version "2.25.25"
\fixed c' {
\voiceTwo g1( f~1~
<< { 8) r r4 r2 } \new Voice { \voiceOne f2.~8 r } >> \break
\voiceOne g1( f~1~
<< { 8) r r4 r2 } \new Voice { \voiceTwo f2.~8 r } >>
}
