If the cantor part is so short that the SATB should start on the same
line and you want the bracket of the staffgroup after the cantor
section, then I'm afraid it will be very tricky to do with LilyPond
today. The best I can come up with is the following simple example.
With the \break, you see how LilyPond can remove staves that are
empty for a full line, if you remove the \break, you get the
cantor part and the SATB part on the same line but probably not
with the desired layout. You could also try to replace the R1*2
with s1*2 if you don't want the rests.
\version "2.2"
\score{
\new ChoirStaff \notes <<
\context Staff = SA \relative c''{
R1*2 | g4 a b g | g a b g
}
\context Staff = TB \relative c'{
\clef bass
% Cantor
c4 a d d, | g2 g | \break
% Main part
g2 d | g b
}
>>
\paper{
\context{
\RemoveEmptyStaffContext
}
}
}

Hello!
I am wanting to set some music which has the general layout:
SA
C TB
SA is a stave with two parts (soprano, alto) sharing the treble clef
TB is a stave with two parts (tenor, bass) sharing the bass clef
I've set these OK, but the whole staffgroup needs to be 'prefixed' by a
separate short stave
for the Cantor (C in the example above). This is in the bass clef and
sits to the left of the
main staff group in vertical alignment with the TB stave.
Can this be done in lilypond? I have tried various ideas but as a newbie
nothing seems to work!!
I'm using version 2.2.5 under WinXP.
Thanks in advance for your help
