In general, different kinds of brackets, bracket-like constructs,
extending into a tuplet, a tie crossing two tuplets, and a
phrasing slur extending out of a tuplet (lines 3 and 4).
-@lilypond[quote,verbatim,ragged-right,relative=1]
-r16[ g \tuplet 3/2 { r16 e'8] }
-g,16( a \tuplet 3/2 { b16 d) e }

so when exactly are multiple voices needed? Look first at
this example of four chords:
-@lilypond[quote,verbatim,ragged-right,relative=1]
-\key g \major
-<d g>4 <d fis> <d a'> <d g>
+@lilypond[quote,verbatim,ragged-right]
+\relative {
+ \key g \major
+ <d' g>4 <d fis> <d a'> <d g>
+}
@end lilypond
This can be expressed using just the single angle bracket chord
Here's how we split the chords above into two voices and add both
the passing note and a slur:
-@lilypond[quote,verbatim,ragged-right,relative=2]
-\key g \major
-% Voice "1" Voice "2"
-<< { g4 fis8( g) a4 g } \\ { d4 d d d } >>
+@lilypond[quote,verbatim,ragged-right]
+\relative {
+ \key g \major
+ % Voice = "1" Voice = "2"
+ << { g'4 fis8( g) a4 g } \\ { d4 d d d } >>
+}
@end lilypond
Notice how the stems of the second voice now point down.
Here's another simple example:
-@lilypond[quote,verbatim,ragged-right,relative=2]
-\key d \minor
-% Voice "1" Voice "2"
-<< { r4 g g4. a8 } \\ { d,2 d4 g } >> |
-<< { bes4 bes c bes } \\ { g4 g g8( a) g4 } >> |
-<< { a2. r4 } \\ { fis2. s4 } >> |
+@lilypond[quote,verbatim,ragged-right]
+\relative {
+ \key d \minor
+ % Voice = "1" Voice = "2"
+ << { r4 g' g4. a8 } \\ { d,2 d4 g } >> |
+ << { bes4 bes c bes } \\ { g4 g g8( a) g4 } >> |
+ << { a2. r4 } \\ { fis2. s4 } >> |
+}
@end lilypond
It is not necessary to use a separate @code{<< \\ >>} construct
notes in each bar it may be better to split out each voice
separately, like this:
-@lilypond[quote,verbatim,ragged-right,relative=2]
-\key d \minor
-<< {
- % Voice "1"
- r4 g g4. a8 |
- bes4 bes c bes |
- a2. r4 |
-} \\ {
- % Voice "2"
- d,2 d4 g |
- g4 g g8( a) g4 |
- fis2. s4 |
-} >>
+@lilypond[quote,verbatim,ragged-right]
+<<
+ \key d \minor
+ \relative { % Voice = "1"
+ r4 g' g4. a8 |
+ bes4 bes c bes |
+ a2. r4 |
+ } \\
+ \relative { % Voice = "2"
+ d'2 d4 g |
+ g4 g g8( a) g4 |
+ fis2. s4 |
+ }
+>>
@end lilypond
\new Staff \relative {
% Main voice
