Issue one: undesired key change. When you translate an expression, if
it includes the \key command then the key changes, on the other hand
if you want the key signature to remain the same, put the \key command
outside the transposed block.

Issue two: a diatonic fourth or a perfect fourth. From the thread I've
still not read what exact type of fourth do you want. So I think it's
better for you to post an example of what you desire, starting with {
c' d' e' f' g' a' b' c'' } as the original material.
