Previous: Specifying melismata within the lyrics, Up: Flexibility in placement
In some complex vocal music, it may be desirable to place
lyrics completely independently of notes. Music defined
inside lyricrhythm disappears into the
Devnull context, but the rhythms can still be used
to place the lyrics.
voice = {
c''2
\tag #'music { c''2 }
\tag #'lyricrhythm { c''4. c''8 }
d''1
}
lyr = \lyricmode { I like my cat! }
<<
\new Staff \keepWithTag #'music \voice
\new Devnull="nowhere" \keepWithTag #'lyricrhythm \voice
\new Lyrics \lyricsto "nowhere" \lyr
\new Staff { c'8 c' c' c' c' c' c' c'
c' c' c' c' c' c' c' c' }
