It's worth noting that, at least in an orchestral context, horns are
conventionally written without a key signature. In

And I learned something new w.r.t \quote* operators, which I did not
know existed.

Thank you all for your suggestions and time. I ended up using \transpose
which was the easiest for me to understand, and worked great it seems.

I use the transpose function just before rendering stuff. Here's a typical
file that should demonstrate what I do. The \book sections at the bottom
are where the transpose is done, while the Melody variable contains the
music. If I have chords, I'll use the \transpose function in the same way.
I'm a little confused as to what you want. If the band's horns are in F pitch,
why do you want the score in E♭?
But anyway, to transpose from F to E♭, modify the lines which use your
variables to
\transpose F ees \frhornInIINotes
and
\transpose F ees \frhornIIInIVNotes
