repeats bars at lyrics level?
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.

The repeat barline glyphs are available via the special characters dialog (F2)
'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.
