If I've got hold of the right end of the stick, imagine you're setting the Brahms opus 118 Klavierstüke, then you would label the six scores thus: 1: piece=Intermezzo, opus=opus 118 no 1 2: piece=Intermezzo, opus=opus 118 no 2 3: piece=Ballade, opus=opus 118 no 3 4: piece=Intermezzo, opus=opus 118 no 4 5: piece=Romanze, opus=opus 118 no 5 6: piece=Intermezzo, opus=opus 118 no 6 Cheers, David. _______________________________________________ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user
