If you want it more semantic, use a normal \header {} block, change 
bookTitleMarkup and scoreTitleMarkup to no longer use the fields and 
instead use \markup \fromproperty #'header:title &c. in the instrumentName.

You might need .

Just in case: Of course you can use the instrumentName of a StaffGroup 
or similar context instead of just any Staff.

Andrew, 

 

You are welcome.

Such “hijackings” make this list so worthwhile!

Hi Mark,

 

Thanks. I suspected as much. It’s not very _semantic_ hijacking the instrument 
name (partly because it makes this concept hard to look up in the docs or 
searches), but it does not matter.

Bernard,

 

You can use “instrument.name.”

See

Subject: Movement title to the left of the system

 

What is the preferred way of putting a title for a movement to the left of the 
start of the first system for a keyboard piece, that is, in the space normally 
used for the indent?

I was unable to find help on this specfic point in the archives or LSR. Is it 
simply a case of taking over the instrument name?
