That's pretty awesome. Unfortunately it doesn't behave like I'd expect by
default. Here's an example:

\version 2.19.15

\include auto-transpose.ily

music = \relative c'
{
  \transposition f
  c1 |
}

\score
{
  \new Staff \with { \autoTranspose } \music
}

Playing a middle C with an F transposition I'd expect the output to be a
fifth down instead it results in a fifth up. There are two variable which
control this: 'music-concert-pitch' - is the music entered in concert
pitch, and 'print-concert-pitch' - should the output music be concert pitch
(as opposed to the transposition pitch). By default it's set to the music
being entered in concert pitch and to output the music in the transposed
pitch. This is the opposite of what lilypond's 'transposition' means.
Switching these around works great, but the default seems wrong.

Anyway, this is a _very_ useful function. Functionality like this should be
part of liliypond itself. Thanks.

Hi Lilyponders,

Does anyone have a successful way of writing parts for natural horns 
and trumpets that would change crooks (and therefore transpositions) 
several times during a part.


There would be a global file holding the many key and time signature 
changes and then I would need the part to change from say Horn in F, 
to Horn in D, to Horn in Af, etc.


Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Craig

I'm trying to understand your problem. Is it that the horn part is
currently in concert pitch and you're looking for an easy way to transpose
it? Are you asking how to notate the changes? Perhaps it would help if you
attached an image of what things look like now and described what you want.
