Jay,

The issue is that the "\alternative" function can't have ANYTHING 
outside of the compound expression brackets {...}. If you need a 
"\break", "\pageBreak", or a "\bar" or barcheck "|", they need to be 
inside one of the {...} sections like:

\alternative { { ... \break } {...} } or \alternative { {... | } {...} }

and not

\alternative { {...} \break {...} } or \alternative { {...} | {...} }

Nice work, Kieren!
