Thanks for the reply, Kieren. Although you recommended not to, I'd like to know if there is some documentation about this abstraction (going further than the reference book's "Manual repeat marks"). This situation would help me a lot.
Hi Lucas,
I was told by people with a far deeper understanding of Lilypond’s than mine that trying to abstract the volta map is undesireable — it should be explicitly included in every music _expression_ that it intersects with.
Cheers,
Kieren.

I've been thinking about Lilypond's usage on parts: for one musician (for example, the singer singing the melody) I'd like to give them a score containing voltas using the repeat and volta commands; for another musician (for example, the drummer) I'd like to give them a score with no repeats and voltas. I know that if I'd like to create a full-band score (i.e a grid) I can use the \unfoldRepeats at every variable, creating one straight through score.
