Hello Kevin,
Perhaps drawing slurs, then tweaking their placements may be an effective
solution? You can use "\shape #’(four lists of pairs) Slur” for this, and to
make it visually more easier for you, you can use its sibling “\vshape” …
Something like this:
%%%BEGIN%%%
\version "2.24.4"
\language "english"
{
\repeat volta 2 {
\shape #'((-3 . 1) (-2.5 . -1) (0 . 0) (0 . 0)) Slur
d'8. ( e'16 f'8 ) r8
r8
\vshape #'((0 . 0) (0 . 0) (3 . -1) (5 . 1.5)) Slur
g'8 ( e'8 c'8 )
}
}
%%%END%%%
I hope this helps!
