Hi Mark This snippet is rather contrived and misleading. I think it should be removed from the docs, or at least replaced with one which shows when the definition of voiceFive is really necessary - when explicitly defining voices. First, the \voicexxx commands are unnecessary when using the <<

Refrain Hymn Setting

Here's the problem: I would like to format for a refrain at the beginning of a hymn. I'm unsure of the manuals (both snippet and notation) when it comes to this, because it doesn't show 4 part harmony (independent voices) in the examples. I'm not sure what to do. Here's the parsing error message
