Re: Chord with notes of different lengths

[Malte Meyn]

You can use two voices. I made two variants but I don’t like the second 
(because semibreves don’t belong on a stem).

\version "2.19.13"

\relative {
  % my preferred version:
  <<
    <fis'' d'>1
    \\
    <d, a'>4
  >>
  % IMHO ugly version:
  \once \override NoteColumn.ignore-collision = ##t
  <<
    <fis' d'>1
    \\
    <d, a' \tweak #'transparent ##t d'>4
  >>
}
