But I thought that wouldn't work with manual note durations.
I'm manually beaming, and my beams don't mean melismas.

So I'm following what the doc says here:

http://lilypond.org/doc/v2.10/Documentation/user/lilypond/Another-way-of-entering-lyrics

taking into account that this page:

http://lilypond.org/doc/v2.10/Documentation/user/lilypond/Melismata

says "notes are considered a melisma if they are manually beamed"


What I'm missing is this:

\set associatedVoice = #"alaw"

in the \lyricmode section, but it makes no difference if I
add it (I took it out to make the snippet shorter - I shouldn't
have, really).
