The thing is that if we combine Simultaneous Music with implicit context 
creation Lilypond will create a context for each simultaneous music 
expression. So doing

<< c' e' g' >>

will create three staves, doing

\new Staff << c' e' g' >>

will create three voices, but

\new Voice << c' e' g' >>

will work. This is not necessary if the context already exists:

{ << c' e' g' >> c' } % Voice/Staff does not exist → creates separate contexts

{ c' << c' e' g' >> } % Voice/Staff do already exist → single context

Cheers,
Valentin
