Re: Standalone lyrics part

[Pierre-Luc Gauthier]

But, doesn't NullVoice create a Staff ?
I am trying to set the lyrics to float in between some random parts.

music = { c'4(~ 2) d'4 }

words = \lyricmode { a b c }

<<
  \new Staff <<
    \new Voice = "1" \music
    \new Lyrics \lyricsto "1" \words
  >>
  << % said null part
    \new NullVoice = "2" \music
    \new Lyrics \lyricsto "2" \words
  >>
>>
