Perhaps as a newcomer I'm missing something, but this looks like a bug to me:
I was experimenting with a .ly file produced by musiccvt, in which a vocal line
with a treble-8 clef had been pitched an octave too high (leger lines that would
frighten a countertenor, let alone a baritone!).
>From the documentation, the solution seemed straightforward:
\transpose a' a { ... } % or similar
The outcome was unexpected: first note unchanged, remainder transposed down by
two octaves.
Speculatively, I tried a variation:
\transpose a a { ... } % shouldn't this leave the pitch unchanged?
The outcome was, at least, consistent with my first attempt: first note raised
by an octave, remainder lowered by an octave.
