A basic example of a lilypond input file is

+\version @w{"@version{}"}

The examples above show how to remove or add engravers to

Now we want to add a cello part. Let's look at the @q{Notes only} example:

melody = \relative c' @{
\clef treble

-We don't need two @code{\version} commands. We'll need the @code{melody}
-section. We don't want two @code{\score} sections -- if we had two
-@code{\score}s, we'd get the two parts separately. We want them together,
-as a duet. Within the @code{\score} section, we don't need two

-If we simply cut and paste the @code{melody} section, we would end up with
-two @code{melody} sections. So let's rename them. We'll call the section

-@code{celloMusic}. While we're doing this, let's rename @code{text}
-to be @code{sopranoLyrics}. Remember to rename both instances of all
