Chris,
I think this would work better if you gave each musician their full measure
rests when they are not singing/playing and then let Lily remove them when
they are not needed. Something like:
\score {
<<
\new Staff { \relative c'' { R1 R1 c4 d e f f e d c R1 R1 } }
\new ChoirStaff
<<
\new Staff {
\relative c'' { c4 d e f f e d c \break R1 R1 \break c4 d e f f e d c }
}
\new Staff {
\relative c'' { g4 a b c c b a g R1 R1 g4 a b c c b a g }
}
\layout {
\context {
\Staff \RemoveEmptyStaves
\override VerticalAxisGroup.remove-first = ##t}
}
}

Subject: Staff error
I'm trying to write a choral score that has parts, then an interlude, then
more parts, etc.
When I code it like the following, I get what I'm looking for.
\version "2.18.2"
\language "english"
% Verse 1
\new ChoirStaff
<<
\new Staff {
\relative c'' { c d e f }
}
\new Staff {
\relative c'' { g a b c }
}
% Interlude
\new Staff {
\relative c'' { c d e f }
}
% Verse 2
\new ChoirStaff
<<
\new Staff {
\relative c { \clef "bass" d e f g }
}
\new Staff {
\relative c { \clef "bass" a b c d }
}
When I enclose the code in a \score block, I get an unexpected \new error on
line 17. What am I missing?
\version "2.18.2"
\language "english"
\score {
% Verse 1
\new ChoirStaff
<<
\new Staff {
\relative c'' { c d e f }
}
\new Staff {
\relative c'' { g a b c }
}
>>
% Interlude
\new Staff {
\relative c'' { c d e f }
}
% Verse 2
\new ChoirStaff
<<
\new Staff {
\relative c { \clef "bass" d e f g }
}
\new Staff {
\relative c { \clef "bass" a b c d }
}
>>
}
Thanks,
Chris
