Re: Time signature at end of score.

I'm also a beginner at Lily, but as a programmer I'm quite certain you
have found the problem.  Consider the violin stanza:

violin = ... { \time 3/4 ...
  \global
  ...
}

"global" has no special meaning, it is just expanded in line, hence:

violin = ... { \time 3/4 ...
  ...
  \time 3/4
}

so the piece starts with a time signature and ends with one through
the expansion of the global stanza.

Score wizard on my machine produces:

\version "2.18.2"
\language "english"

\header {
  title = "Test"
}

global = {
  \key c \major
  \time 4/4
}

violin = \relative c'' {
  \global
  % Music follows here.

}

\score {
  \new Staff \with {
    instrumentName = "Violin"
    midiInstrument = "violin"
  } \violin
  \layout { }
  \midi {
    \tempo 4=100
  }
}

Note that there is no \time in the violin section, and that notes
should go _after_ the \global invocation.

HTH, Martin
