Transcription of Ancient music with incipit
As a workaround to get real incipits which are independent from the main score these are
included as a markup into the field normally used for the instrument name. As for now lyrics
can only be added as a direct markup. It doesn’t unfortunately conform with the spacing of the
main lyrics.

\set Score.skipBars = ##t
\key g \major
\time 4/4
%make the staff lines invisible on staves
\override Staff.BarLine #'transparent = ##t
\skip 1*8 % the actual music
% let finis bar go through all staves
