    Thanks, Kieren! I agree, it really is quite simple. The only thing
    you need to remember is this: any property that is defined in the
    book-level \header block will remain in effect within each
    score-level header block unless you re-define it or set it to ##f in
    the score's \header, but properties set in the score-level \header
    block is locally contained (i.e., score's don't share property
    values, but the book does).
    
    T.M.,
    
    You probably have figured this out already, but I thought I'd share
    this, just for the record if anyone else needs a starting point
    (note the re-definition of scoreTitleMarkup inside the \paper
    block that allows you to redefine title, composer,
    instrument, etc. for each individual \score):
    
    %%%%%%%%%%%%%
      
        \version "2.18.2"
        
      music = \repeat unfold 12 { R1 }
      
      \paper {
        scoreTitleMarkup = \markup { 
          \column {
            \on-the-fly \print-all-headers { \bookTitleMarkup
        \hspace #1 }
            \fill-line {
              \huge \larger \larger \bold \fromproperty
        #'header:title
            }
            \fill-line {
              \fromproperty #'header:piece
              { \large \bold \fromproperty #'header:instrument
        }
              \fromproperty #'header:composer
            }
          }
        }
      }
        
      \header {
          % this text will show up in any score that
          % doesn't set "title" to something else
        title = "My Multi-Score Songbook"
      }
      
      \score {
        { \clef treble \music }
        \header {
          title = "Score 1"
          instrument = "Clarinet"
          composer = \markup { \smallCaps "Beethoven" }
        }
      }
      
      \score {
        { \clef alto \music }
        \header {
          title = "Score 2"
          instrument = "Violoncello"
          composer = \markup { \smallCaps "Mozart" }
        }
      }
      
      %%%%%%%%%%%%%
      
      
    which gives you the following (or see attached):

    HTH,
    Abraham
