inserted beam and end before the end of the beam -- not very
musical, perhaps, but possible:

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).

so when exactly are multiple voices needed? Look first at
this example of four chords:
-@lilypond[quote,verbatim,fragment,ragged-right,relative=1]
+@lilypond[quote,verbatim,ragged-right,relative=1]
\key g \major
<d g>4 <d fis> <d a'> <d g>
@end lilypond
Here's how we split the chords above into two voices and add both
the passing note and a slur:
-@lilypond[quote,verbatim,fragment,ragged-right,relative=2]
+@lilypond[quote,verbatim,ragged-right,relative=2]
\key g \major
% Voice "1" Voice "2"
<< { g4 fis8( g) a4 g } \\ { d4 d d d } >>
Here's another simple example:
-@lilypond[quote,verbatim,fragment,ragged-right,relative=2]
+@lilypond[quote,verbatim,ragged-right,relative=2]
\key d \minor
% Voice "1" Voice "2"
<< { r4 g g4. a8 } \\ { d,2 d4 g } >> |
notes in each bar it may be better to split out each voice
separately, like this:
-@lilypond[quote,verbatim,fragment,ragged-right,relative=2]
+@lilypond[quote,verbatim,ragged-right,relative=2]
\key d \minor
<< {
% Voice "1"
In each of these contexts, the vertical direction of slurs,
stems, ties, dynamics etc., is set appropriately.
-@lilypond[quote,verbatim,fragment]
+@lilypond[quote,verbatim]
\new Staff \relative c' {
% Main voice
c16 d e f
we have learnt, using the @code{<< \\ >>} construct to
enter the music of the first bar in three voices:
-@lilypond[quote,verbatim,fragment,ragged-right]
+@lilypond[quote,verbatim,ragged-right]
\new Staff \relative c'' {
\key aes \major
<<
and placing the music in voice four. This is done by simply
adding another pair of @code{\\}.
-@lilypond[quote,verbatim,fragment,ragged-right]
+@lilypond[quote,verbatim,ragged-right]
\new Staff \relative c'' {
\key aes \major
<< % Voice one
the lyrics to the notes with @code{\lyricsto@{@}}, using the
name assigned to the Voice.
