Let me get this straight. If I wanted a score-specific header, AND if I wanted "text marks" on every staff (as in the snippet "Printing marks on every staff": http://lilypond.org/doc/v2.11/Documentation/user/lilypond/Writing-text#Selected-Snippets-35 ), I would have to nest a "\new Score { ... }" block (needed to reassign the engravers) within a "\score" block (needed to get the score-specific header)? This is not only confusing, but seems needlessly tedious. I agree with Helge; either we need something in the docs like "When to use \score and when to use \new Score", or we need some new syntactic sugar. Can "\score" be re-coded to incorporate the auto-context-creation of "\new Score", or can "\new Score" be re-coded to allow \header and \layout blocks? Or am I missing something... Okay, if there's a way to code the example below without \score { \new Score { ... } } please let me know. - Mark _____________________________________________ \score { \new Score \with { \remove "Mark_engraver" \remove "Staff_collecting_engraver" } << \new Staff \with { \consists "Mark_engraver" \consists "Staff_collecting_engraver" } { c''1 \mark "molto" c'' } \new Staff \with { \consists "Mark_engraver" \consists "Staff_collecting_engraver" } { c'1 \mark "molto" c' } >> \header { piece = "a Score within a \score!" } }
