Hello Valentin,

Awesome. I've been wanting to learn more Scheme! I just need to figure out OR statements to get a final bar!

Many thanks,

Hello Matthew,

if you want you can even automatise this:

\version "2.22.2"

\layout {
   \context {
     \ChoirStaff
     \consists Span_bar_engraver
     \override BarLine.allow-span-bar =
     #(lambda (grob)
        (equal? (ly:grob-property grob 'glyph)
                "||"))
   }
}


\new ChoirStaff <<
   \new Staff { 1 1 \bar "||" 1 }
   \new Staff { 1 1 1 }
 >>

Cheers,
Valentin
