* For the dynamics issues, see here: http://lilypond.org/doc/v2.16/Documentation/notation/expressive-marks-attached-to-notes#dynamics * For the honophonic/polyphonic writing, my usual approach to these kinds of issues (in my case, Lyrics), is to keep as much writing (polyphonic or homophonic) in a single voice, then add a second voice only when there is overlap that needs to be notated separately. In your case, constantly maintain two voices (for each polyphonic element) and choose one of them to contain the homophonic music.
