Your advice worked, so I'm again one step closer to the goal :-) Your
wording "This creates a voice context to which you can attach the
lyrics" also helped me understand what I'm doing and why.
The solution also caused a problem though. Some stems of the upper voice
on the upper staff were changed to wrong direction, eg. down. Any ideas
what might have caused this? I tried to move some items around in the
code, but could only make things worse.
Here's how the code looks at the moment:
...................
\version "2.11.61"
\paper { indent=0\cm }
\header { title = "Ylistysveisu" }
sopraano = \relative c'' \context Voice = "sopraano" {
\key g \major
\cadenzaOn
g4( a b) b a2 gis
\bar "|"
a4 b c b a gis a1
\bar "|" \break
b2 a a a4( gis) a b c2( b) a2. b4\rest
\bar "|" \break
}
altto = \relative c' {
d2( g4) g e2 e
e4 g g g e e e1
e2 e e e e4 g g1 e2.
}
tenori = \relative c' {
\clef bass
\key g \major
b4( c d) d c2 b
c4 d e d c b c1
d2 c c c4( b) c d e2( d) c2.
}
basso = \relative c' {
g2. g4 a2 e
a4 g c, g' a e <a a,>1
<gis gis,>2 <a a,> <a a,> <a a,>4( e) a g c,2( g') a2. d,4\rest
}
sanat = \lyricmode { Y -- lis -- täm- me
}
\score {
\new PianoStaff \with { \accepts Lyrics } <<
\new Staff <<
{ \sopraano } \\
{ \altto }
>>
\new Lyrics \lyricsto "sopraano" { \sanat }
\new Staff <<
{ \tenori } \\
{ \basso }
>>
>>
}

The reason to use PianoStaff is to get the staves to start with braces
instead of brackets, nothing else (or at least I'm not aware of
anything else that I could achieve by using it). I discussed the
brace/bracket matter today, and the idea to use braces comes from the
fact that many older music books of the area of music in question use
braces instead of brackets. If braces are difficult to implement, using
brackets isn't ruled out. They have been used along with braces. I'm more the
technical guy here (yes, really :-) helping
another person to start using Lilypond, so to know what the result
should look like I either have to look at the examples I have at hand, or ask
the the person I'm teaching.
Thanks for your help :-)
