Well, after monkeying around with things I came up with splitting the music
data files with includes. So something like \include "sectiona.ly" \include
"sectionb.ly" for a single part. etc. So a single part would be multiple
includes and then the includes could be included where needed in the vocal
score. However, it turned out that while this was doable in certain cases
it wasn't in, all for the reason that I needed to put voices into other
lines and merge them in sometimes funky ways that were not receptive to
such a method. So the upshot was I abandoned the idea, but it might have
worked well for something simpler than what I happened to be doing. Anyway,
I do not expect to have to make too many further edits to either the full
or vocal score so there shouldn't be too much double maintenance in any
event.

regards and thanks again for the help,
Shane
