Re: help: stems in multiple voices per staff

[Mats Bengtsson]

I don't really see what your problem is.
You can do both

BrassTwoVoices=<
        \context Voice="VoiceA" {\voiceOne \VoiceA}
        \context Voice="VoiceB" {\voiceTwo \VoiceB}
 >

and

BrassOneVoice= \context Voice="BrassVoice" <\VoiceA \VoiceB>
