Hmmm... not really.
At the moment when \parallelMusic sorts the whole expression into three
variables, the syllables have no length. Thus, your variable "\text"
contains a sequence of syllables without length information.
The "\lyricsto" command takes those syllables and puts them under the notes
in "\melody" - one by one. So the notes have the length information, the
syllables don't need them.
You can simply ignore the warnings, because this method works well. However,
the bar check does not work on syllables without length - you can not
guarantee that syllables will be used in the bar where you defined them. For
example,
% ----------------------------------------------
\parallelMusic #'(harmonies melody text)
{
c1 |
c2 e4 g |
\lyricmode { Cee Eee Gee too many} |
c1 |
c2 e4 g |
\lyricmode { Cee Eee Gee } |
}
% ----------------------------------------------
will produce six notes, therefore the first six syllables will be used.
I guess it will be easier to define the whole lyrics in one "\lyricmode"
statement.
Hope this helps,
Klaus
