Slur across alternate ending - with example

[Pastor Jim Neubauer]

So I figured out how to make and adjust a slur on my own. I am really wondering though if there is a more elegant way like how simple it is to do \repeatTie.

 

\version "2.18.2"

 

\language "english"

 

\relative c'' {

\key d \major

\time 4/4

\repeat volta 2 {

 

d4 d8 d8~ d8 a4 d8(

}

 

                \alternative {

{ e4. d8~ d8 cs4) a8 a4 a8 fs'8~ fs8 e4 d8 \bar ":|." }

{  e4.-\tweak control-points #'((-1 . 3.1) (3 . 3.6) (8 . 3.4) (10 . 1.5)) ( d8~ d8 cs8)    fs8 fs8~ } }

                }
