Instrument in score block?
Is it possible to define headers (like instrument) in the score context? I've
tried, and nothing comes up.
Background: I play trumpet and use Lilypond to transpose music. You have parts
in F, A, E flat, whatever, and my trumpets are tuned in B flat or C.
So what I do is I write the score in an lyi file and include that in a ly file
that does the transposing.
So I get something like below. Two book parts, one with suffix C (so the
filename is score-C.pdf) and one with suffix Bes. In the \score I do the
transposing. And of course because I do the transposing there, I can only set
the instrument there. It is important that you specify which trumpet to take,
otherwise you're a full note off ofcourse.
But as I said, this does not work. Are there other options?
\book {
\bookOutputSuffix "C"
\score {
\transpose c bes, { \partI }
\header { instrument = "Trumpet in C" }
\layout { ragged-last = ##f }
} %% \score
} %%\book
\book {
\bookOutputSuffix "Bes"
\score {
\transpose bes bes { \partI }
\header { instrument = "Trumpet in Bes" }
\layout { ragged-last = ##f }
} %% \score
} %%\book

Not a complete working example. Anything wrong with
partI = { c'1 }
\book {
\bookOutputSuffix "C"
\header { instrument = "Trumpet in C" }
\score {
\transpose c bes, { \partI }
\layout { ragged-last = ##f }
} %% \score
} %%\book
\book {
\bookOutputSuffix "Bes"
\header { instrument = "Trumpet in Bes" }
\score {
\transpose bes bes { \partI }
\layout { ragged-last = ##f }
} %% \score
} %%\book
