Thanks for the replies, everyone.

Interesting. Does \voiceXXX take a music expression too? If so, can I set the
bounds of the expression with {}?

I've found a general need to add \xxxNeutral after using \voices to get stems,
ties, tuplets, etc to line up "correctly"
(http://lilypond.org/doc/v2.14/Documentation/learning/within_002dstaff-objects).
It's not clear to me what the bounds of \voiceXXX are.
If expression boundaries impact the state of the parser, it seems Lily is
adding a burden to the user by forcing the user to manage expression boundaries
without a consistent way to define the boundaries. At least, that's the
objection that's inside my noob head, anyway. Also, trying to fix the tie
problem sent me through the path of adding all sorts of things to the music
that made reading it more difficult.
I looked at the grammar at
http://lilypond.org/doc/v2.14/Documentation/notation/lilypond-grammar. Where is
\voiceXXX defined?
