Because a musical work "typically" has one title at the top (cf a novel) and one composer (cf author), whereas each movement (particularly where they're often performed separately) will be numbered (cf chapters) and sometimed titled (like children's stories). > The process you provide seems a little kludgy to get "opus" behave as it > would on a normal score with multiple movements. I think the example (which BTW I didn't write) was designed to give you a lot of flexibility without using the \fromproperty method. If your music is very conventional as just described, then the default scheme may work for you, as attached (modified from that example cited). Cheers, David.
