Lyrics to single stave polyphony |

Hi,
I've been struggling with this for some time now - and am relatively new to
Lilypond ... all help really appreciated.
I have a piece for boys and girls on 2 staves with piano accpt. Every so
often I wish e.g. the girls to divide into 2 parts and would like to keep on
the same stave:
...
a2~a4 fs8 fs |
\mark \default % [D]
% split into two here
<<
{ e2 ~ e4 s8 e8 |
fs g4 a8 ~ a4 s8 a16 a |
}
\\
{ e,2 ~ e4 r8 e8 |
fs8 e4 fs8 ~ fs4 r8 fs16 fs |
}
>>
...
This works fine.
I now need to add lyrics. All is OK until the split into 2 parts when no
lyrics are printed at all - though they get picked up by the music once the
split has been closed.
I have set the soprano voice in its own context:
sopranoVoicePart = \new Staff \with {
instrumentName = "Girls"
midiInstrument = "choir aahs"
} { \sopranoVoice } % notes
\addlyrics { \verseOneSopranoVoice \verseTwoSopranoVoice } % lyrics
How do I get the lyrics to be displayed when the split happens?
Thanks very much for any guidance you might be able to provide, other
examples I have looked at just don't seem to quite fit.
Thanks
Simon
