Thanks. That does it, but also puts a bracket on all the single staffs,
which seems wrong and unneccessary. The brackets also overwrite the
bar numbers.
Lilypond's main weakness seems to be the way everything gets written
over everything else. I suppose I'll have to keep on digging to find
how to fine tune the position of each entity, one by one. It means
that 90% of the script is position instructions and formatting info...
The output _is_ beautiful, though.
I find that the \paper block has to come after
\notes{ ... }
\header { ... }
which is somehow counter-intuitive. Can you also point me to a summary
of the whole structure of lilypond documents?
TIA
