Re: partcombine problem

Hi Peter

Forget \partcombine.  Chapter 3.2 in the Learning Manual might help.  You 
just need to put the two voices in parallel, like this:

\version "2.11.41"
\score{
\context Staff  <<
 \context Voice=tune {
   \voiceOne
   \relative c' {s4. s8 b8. d16 }
 }
 \context Voice=accomp {
   \voiceTwo
   \relative c'{ s4.   a8 <b g>8. d16 }
 }
> >
}
