There does not appear to be a way to get a multi-measure rest which is
unaffected by the width of the markup text (\emptyText does not work).

A sample of the problem is below.

The method on the second stave is how I got it to work in version 1.7.13.


\version "2.9.24"

\relative d'' {
\clef violin
\key d \minor
\time 3/4

% this works
\emptyText
<<
 \emptyText r2.
 \emptyText s2.^\markup{ "Fà ch'ogn'uno tralasci e balli canti"}
>>
e2. ~ |
% 5
e2. |
bes'2. ~ |
bes4 a g |
a2. |
gis |
\break


% This does not work: measure is stretched to length of text
\emptyText
<<
 \emptyText R2.
 \emptyText s2.^\markup{ "Fà ch'ogn'uno tralasci e balli canti"}
>>
e2. ~ |
% 5
e2. |
bes'2. ~ |
bes4 a g |
a2. |
gis |
\break

% this workaround does not work either
 \emptyText s1*0^\markup{ "Fà ch'ogn'uno tralasci e balli canti"}
 \emptyText R2.*3
e2. ~ |
% 5
e2. |
bes'2. ~ |
bes4 a g |
a2. |
gis |

}

\layout {}
