Hi list!

Can someone tell me where in the manual I can find how to fit lyrics to
other voices?

What I'm doing is arranging a hymn for Barbershop chorus, and in the last
stanza, I want to do a call-and-response thing, changing the rhythm from 3
to 4 (I've managed that part) and using the extra beat to have interaction
between the parts, thus:

            when we've              been there \
                                                           | ten thousand
years ...
When we've            been there              /

So while the leads (second voice, same place as alto in SATB) have the
regular words associated with their line, the tenors (in soprano place) and
baritones and basses (on bass clef) will sing alternate words directly keyed
to their line of music.  I've seen it done, but I simply can't find how in
the manual.

Windows XP Pro, LilyPond 2.11.14, jEdit 4.3 pre9 with Lilypond Tool

Can someone help?

Blessings,

Fr. Gordon Gilbert
