Hi all
I happened to typeset a few canons from several sources the last days. Let's assume we have a 3-voiced canon. I observed that they look somewhere between how one would set 3 parallel voices/staves and a single-voice tune running through 3 lines with a \break after every "line of lyrics".
Let's start with this MVE
\version "2.24.0"
notesI = \relative c' {
c1^\markup "1." c
}
notesII = \relative c' {
e2^\markup "2." e e2. e4
}
notesIII = \relative c' {
g'4^\markup "3." g16 g g g g4 g g g g g
\bar "|."
}
\score {
<<
\new Staff {
\new Voice \notesI
\addlyrics { \lyricmode { Hel -- lo, } }
}
\new Staff {
\new Voice \notesII
\addlyrics { \lyricmode { hal -- li hal -- lo } }
}
\new Staff {
\new Voice \notesIII
\addlyrics { \lyricmode { hel -- lo -- lo -- lo -- lo --
lo -- lo -- lo -- lo -- lo -- lo } }
}
>>
}
* (1) remove "SpanBar" that connects the 3 staves on the left, so
that it looks like having 3 systems
* (3) remove time signature on line 2 and 3
What I'd like to keep:* (4) vertical alignment of the parts / lines
* (5) "fat" barline \bar "|." at the very end, after line 3
Or should I start with a 1-voice song (takes care of barlines and time signatures) and then address vertical alignment?
Any idea is appreciated! TIA
Stephan
