The basic principle is described in the section on "Divisi lyrics" in
the manual.
Just give a name to the corresponding part and use \lyricsto as usual.
Something
along the lines of
bass = \relative c {
\time 3/4
% First part of the song, with lyrics in unison:
c2. | g | e | g | ...
% Here start the divisi lyrics:
\new Voice = bassDivisi {
\time 4/4
f4 f r2 | e4 e r2 | ...
}
}
and then within the \score:
\new Lyrics \lyricsto bassDivisi {When we've ... }

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
