Well, when singing Monteverdi's Vespers, I remember having to fit about a dozen of syllables to some single notes. Take a look at <URL:http://imslp.org/wiki/Special:ImagefromIndex/311853>, page 10. Or probably more convincingly interspersed with "normal" syllable distributions several times on page 11. -- David Kastrup _______________________________________________ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user
