That is how I join parts together with time changes, and I didn't think I was
being capricious. 
If I put the time changes in each part, and make a mistake and forget a measure,
the time changes early on all the parts and its harder to see which part has
the missing measure.

Slip jig time is slightly awkward, but it works.

mandolin = {R2.*4 R4.*12 %{4 measures of 3 beats %} }
conductor = {\time 6/8 s2.*4 \time 9/8 s4.*12}
\new Staff <<\conductor \mandolin >>
