I think you just have to remember to use \oneVoice or \stemNeutral when the
2nd voice isn't playing.
If the 2nd voice is coming and going frequently, you are much better off
using
<<
{ \voiceOne
Music goes here
}
\new Voice {
{ \voiceTwo
Music goes here
}
}
>>
\oneVoice
This way, when the voices split in two, the first voice can continue using a
slur it had begun before the voices split. If you use << { } \\ {} >> to
split the voices, you'll get "Cannot terminate slur" errors, and then you
have to start the second voice before you really want to, fill it with
spacer rests and manually change the stemming -- no fun.
There is a really nice post on the Scores of Beauty blog about temporary
polyphonic sections by Urs Liska:
