If you are using \alternative with repeat, you would only use that with volta? That's the only way I've used it, but maybe others have used the other sorts of repeat with \alternative? Shelagh ___ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org http:

I am presently doing a piece for our local singing group, which has two parts. But for a short section the altos split into two parts. So during that refrain there are three, not two parts. I did a basic Lilypond file without the second alto part which worked well with the lyrics I entered. So far
