Re: Question about voices

[Jérémie Lumbroso]

LD> I'm trying to compose a score with two voices on one staff.
As indicated in the following link:
http://lilypond.org/development/Documentation/user/out-www/lilypond/Polyphony.html#Polyphony
For persistent voices (ie.: when a voice spans throughout the whole
piece with [nearly] no interruptions), it is best to manually initiate
a context (as shown in the manual):

  \relative c''
  \context Staff <
         \context Voice = VA { \voiceOne cis2 b  }
         \context Voice = VB { \voiceThree b4 ais ~ ais4 gis4 }
         \context Voice = VC { \voiceTwo fis4~  fis4 f ~ f  }

For a new measure, separate your notes with "|":

  a8 b c d | d d e c | e g f d


  
Also look at the attached example — I hope it helps (the result is so
unreadable that I'm having a hard time believing that it's what you
wanted).
