Hi Mark
This snippet is rather contrived and misleading. I think it should be
removed from the docs, or at least replaced with one which shows when the
definition of voiceFive is really necessary - when explicitly defining
voices.
First, the \voicexxx commands are unnecessary when using the << {}\\{}>>
construct. They have to be placed here only because the voices are entered
in the incorrect order. If instead the five voices are entered from voice
one to voice five in order omitting voice four everything works fine without
having to define \voiceFive, as shown below. The bar "||" has no effect in
the position shown. It should be at the end of one of the five music
expressions.
Try this:
% voiceFive = #(context-spec-music (make-voice-props-set 4) 'Voice)
\relative c'' {
\time 3/4
\key d \minor
\partial 2
<<
{
% \voiceOne
a4. a8
e'4 e4. e8
f4 d4. c8
\bar "||"
}
\\
{
% \voiceTwo
d,2
d4 cis2
d4 bes2
}
\\
{
% \voiceThree
f'2
bes4 a2
a4 s2
}
\\
% no voice four
\\
{
% \voiceFive
s2
g4 g2
f4 f2
}
>>
}
or this
voiceFive = #(context-spec-music (make-voice-props-set 4) 'Voice)
\relative c'' {
\time 3/4
\key d \minor
\partial 2
<<
\new Voice {
\voiceOne
a4. a8
e'4 e4. e8
f4 d4. c8
\bar "||"
}
\new Voice {
\voiceTwo
d,2
d4 cis2
d4 bes2
}
\new Voice {
\voiceThree
f'2
bes4 a2
a4 s2
}
\new Voice {
\voiceFive
s2
g4 g2
f4 f2
}
>>
}
