I have some beginner piano solos where I need to put in lyrics where there are rests and tied notes (because the bass clef has the note that is sung but the lyric needs to be where all the treble staff lyrics are). I can see that I can include a lyric under a rest as in the first measure, but how can I put a lyric on tied notes? Like in this picture?
What is the best way to do this? (In Finale, I used to have to input a hidden voice with all the correct pitches in one staff, but that was frustrating.)
There is an easy solution: write everything without ties first. Dorico will let you write lyrics under rests, so no problem there. Then, with all syllables put in, tie the notes:
Okay that would work here! Thank you! But what about here where I would need to include lyrics for the bass staff but in same line as the treble staff (but it has a whole rest).
