repeats bars at lyrics level?

• Aug 28, 2023 - 14:53

Hi all,
The attached file is a two pages extract of Michael Ostrzyga's "Iuppiter".

As you can see at bars #37, 41, 43 and further there are couples of repeat bars at the lyric level containing lyrics.

What is the musical meaning of this "notation" and is there a way to implement it in MuS?

Thanks for your help.

'What is the musical meaning of this "notation"?'
That is explained in the *footnote:
geflüstert (individuell) / whispered (asynchronous)

For the duration of the repeat signs, different singers will be whispering the two phrases at different speeds. This results in a deliberate confusion of overlapping sounds.
