Personally, I think you're going about this exactly backwards. Rather than
including the score in a notation file, I think you should include the
notation in a score file. That way, you can easily reuse the notation in
multiple places.

I think that's right. The Score (capital S) context is created
automatically by LilyPond. We used to use \new Score, but we have
eliminated that.
I think that the cleanest way to do this is to have a notation file for each
of the pieces of notation, and then have a score file that includes all of
the notation files.
