Hi David,
One way to do it:
\version "2.19"
{
<c'\=1( a'\=2^(>8. <d'\=1) b'\=2)>16
}
From the Changes page:
A new command \=X has been added – where ‘X’ can be any non-negative integer or symbol – so that a specific ‘id’ can be assigned to the start and end of slurs and phrasing slurs.
This is useful when simultaneous slurs are required or if one slur overlaps another or when nesting short slurs within a longer one.

While we’re on the topic of bending slurs to our will, I’d like for slurred, beamed eighth notes to have the slur printed below or inside the beam. This works with a simple ^~ for ties. How might I accomplish this?
