Hi Peter,

I think you should consider using tags:

%%%  SNIPPET BEGINS
\version "2.24.3"

melody = {
  c'2 -\tag #'violin -\downbow g'2 -\tag #'violin -\upbow  es'2. d'4  |
  c' es' d' c' |  
  b d' g2
}

{ \clef alto \keepWithTag #'violin \melody }

{ \transpose bes, c { \clef treble \removeWithTag #'violin \melody } }
%%%  SNIPPET ENDS

[Note: It seems like you might also benefit from reading the manuals, 
especially the Learning Manual.]

> turning a melody in a minor key into a major key.

There’s a function out there somewhere to do that — search the LSR, etc.

Hope that helps!
Kieren.
