Re: Stacking two text lines

[Mike Dean]

It worked!! Thanks, Aaron!!

(I have to wrestle with the placement of the text in a \score block, as I've combined the two Gavottes into one document....)

Hopefully the order ought to be:

\score {

Music _expression_

}

\header { title }

\markup {someText} << when the movement stood by itself, placing it before the {music _expression_} worked, but, not at all in a \score block

\markup is quite powerful in LilyPond; and you can use it just about
anywhere.  But more important to your scenario, you can use it for
TextScripts and RehearsalMarks.  See the following:

%%%%
\version "2.19.82"

someText = \markup
   \abs-fontsize #8 \override #'(baseline-skip . 1.5)
   \right-column { A BB CCC }

\fixed c' {
   | c'4 \tuplet 3/2 { b8 a g } e2^\markup \someText
   | f4 \tuplet 3/2 { g8 a b } c'2
     \once \override Score.RehearsalMark.self-alignment-X = #RIGHT
     \mark \markup \someText
}
%%%%
