I am still relatively new to lilypond.
I have a simple four voice choral attached.
(1)
This example produces numerous warnings about
clashing notes which look like:
choral-beethoven-moonlight-01-simple.ly:16:62: warning: ignoring too many clashing note columns
e'2 e'2 e'2 fs'2 fs'2 e'2 ds'!2 ds' cs'
Why is this happening?
Because of "many clashing note columns" ;) To avoid this use \voiceOne and \voiceTwo, or write chords

Also, this example fails to produce a midi file.
Can someone explain what I am doing wrong?
\midi should be _in_ score: \score { \new PianoStaff { ... } \layout { ... } \midi { ... } } (3)
As far as the structure of my file:
\new PianoStaff
<<
\new Staff = "up"
{
<<
\new Voice = "up" { }
\new Voice = "up" { }
}
\new Staff = "down"
{
<<
\new Voice { }
\new Voice { }
}
}
Is this considered an example of "best practice", or how
might others structure a four voice choral.

Finally, at the beginning of the four measure in
the soprano and alto, the d# and c# collide.
I would have thought lilypond would have taken care
of this. What do I need to do to fix this?
See above. HTH, Harm
