You can either use multiple \book {...} sections in one .ly file, which will then create multiple pdfs, which are unfortunately numbered, e.g. telemann-1.pdf, telemann-2.pdf, ... You can, however, also use #(define output-suffix VcB) to define a suffix for the filename. A number will still be added, so the filename for the \book(s) after this definition will be telemann-VcB-3.pdf, etc. This will work only in lilypond = 2.11, though. Attached is an example to show you how this works. It creates five files for VI, VII, Va, VcB and a FullScore. The other way (e.g. if this file naming is too unflexible for you) is to create separate input files and one file with all the music definitions. Each file for VI, VI, etc. would include the file with the music definitions, and you can write a makefile to build all five files with a simple make. My other problem comes from the fact that if I give multiple piece names in the \header section, only the last one is printed for all of them. You need to add a separate score for each piece, and in each of these scores, you can set the piece to something separate...

RE: Rhythm mark snippet in LSR not 2.11. compatible?
Hi Risto Two changes seem to be required to make this snippet work in 2.11. This may not be the optimum solution, though. a) The vertical alignment of the inserted score blocks seems different in the two releases. In 2.11 their vertical extend is used to centre them vertically. This did not seem to happen in 2.10, although I can't test this. This can be fixed in 2.11 by the trick Mats recently suggested - reduce their Y-extent to zero. So in each of the \Staff \with blocks add \override VerticalAxisGroup #'Y-extent = #'(0 . 0) % td b) The horizontal alignment of the rehearsal mark in 2.11 is by default on the bar line, or if no bar line is visible, on the clef. In 2.10 it was just aligned to the bar line. Aligning it to the clef causes it to be raised to avoid the collision. However, simply restoring this behaviour in 2.11 does not help much. The very first rehearsal mark can be instead aligned to the time signature with \override Score.RehearsalMark #'break-align-symbols = #'(staff-bar time-signature) % td which fixes its vertical alignment by permitting it to drop down, but doesn't help with the ones at the start of subsequent lines as there is no time signature to align them to. So instead, I think we need to fall back on changing individual X-offsets to move these: \once \override Score.RehearsalMark #'X-offset = #5 % td I attach an amended snippet which seems to work in 2.11.34.

Re: GDP: What term do you use?
I agree with Ian: octave transposition. Thinking about it, the term octavation (and octavated) is, in fact, in my English vocabulary, but only for artificial harmonics at the octave (ie, those string harmonics where the diamond notehead appears exactly one octave above the capotasto / stopped note / fundamental / round notehead; so: octavated harmonics). But my teacher for these sorts of things was Italian ... and so I'm pretty sure I've got a stow-away from Italian lurking around in my English here. Yeah, I can't think of a single native use of the term octavation (or related) at all. Have to fall back on octave transposition here.

For comparison, the Finale 2006 user manual index lists the topic under 8va/8bv. The index entries for 15ma, Ottava, and Quindecima all say see 8va/8bv.

Re: GDP: What term do you use?
Hello: The only term I've ever heard in english for this is octave displacement and its notation is 8va .. dotted line over the affected passage. I lieu of any other acceptable english terminology I'd go with Groves as it widely accepted as a standard English language reference work for music. I believe that Groves in right in deferring to the Italian since that is the usually accepted language for musical terminology. Octave transposition seems a confusing, since transposition in music usually implies that the passage is to be played in a different key. Octave displacement does not change the key.

Re: GDP: What term do you use? (redux)
I'm working on the Glossary for the GDP, and I'm stuck -- so, I'm canvassing the list. ... Oh, yeah ... I was also wondering: What the Dutch, Danish, Finnish and Swedish words for 128th- and 256th-notes and -rests? In English, this would depend on which side of the Atlantic you live in. Here in North America the standard terminology would be 128th note/rest or 256th note or rest. I'm not sure what the British call it. It will be something like semi-demi-hemi-quaver I believe.. someone will correct me if I'm wrong (quite possible!) Most people in North America simply will not understand the British terms.
