I'm currently composing a choir piece, and I would like the verses to be sung as a tenor solo, (It's a hymnal, so lyrics above the staff, check.) And have a descant for verse three above the treble staff. Is there a way to start entering lyrics at a certain point? I attached the piece to give you a better idea.
A question for eveyone (mostly pianists): Say you are writing a song where the piano is playing around middle C, so that the notes will end up on ledger lines in bass and treble clef. Normally, since ledger lines can be annoying, I will write the piano part with double bass clefs or double treble clefs in order to cut down on the ledger lines in the overall piece. My question is: if ledger lines must be used in a piece (meaning most of the piece is situated there) which is preferable, low ledgers on a treble clef or higher ledgers in a bass clef? If I've thrown you with this explanation I've attatched an example piece.
