I always use separate voices for soloists and choir, anyway. That way, I can
always produce a more compact choir-only score (with cues to the soloists).
What is harder to achieve (actually, I don't know if there is any chance to do
it with lilypond curently) is the switching of the lyrics from below to above
the staff on a linebreak.
The only way I see is to hardcode the linebreak...
Cheers,
Reinhold
