Re: Lyric extender is missing

[Mats Bengtsson]

See http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-lilypond/2006-05/msg00008.html
However, in your example I also had to use different names for the
Staff context "women" and Voice context "women". The resulting
\score{...} block could look like:
\score {

  <<

     \new ChoirStaff <<



        \new Staff = womenStaff <<

           \new Voice = "women" { << \womenMusic >> }

        >>

        \new Lyrics = "women" { s1 }

        \new Lyrics = "altoWords" { s1 }



        \new Staff = men <<

           \new Voice = "men" { << \menMusic >> }

        >>

        \new Lyrics = "men" { s1 }

        \new Lyrics = "bassWords" { s1 }



        \context Lyrics = sopranoWords {\set alignAboveContext = 
#"womenStaff" \lyricsto sopranoMusic \sopranoWords }
