This is truly magnificent. Reading this tutorial, I learnt a lot about things Lilypond can do which I wasn't really aware of. Most importantly, it appears to solve just about every problem I can imagine regarding arranging parts on variable numbers of staves. It even automates things so that a required change in the number/distribution of staves happens automatically at line breaks. I now have the orchestral piece I wanted to set well under way in Lilypond, and so far the methods you propose are doing everything I want. A bonus is that my file structure is far more consistent and well organized than ever before. Thank you so much. David
