Cross staff stems

This snippet shows the use of the Span_stem_engraver and \crossStaff to connect stems across staves automatically.

The stem length need not be specified, as the variable distance between noteheads and staves is calculated automatically.

 
\layout {
  \context {
    \PianoStaff
    \consists #Span_stem_engraver
  }
}

    \new Staff {
