How can I specifiy key minor or key major in transpose?
Is it possible \transpose from f major to b flat minor? How to
code in \transpose?
I don't believe this is possible in Lilypond, at least using the
\transposition command. If it is possible, it'd be a nifty feature.
Changing from a major key to a minor key is a reharmonization rather
than a transposition.
I put \transpose f bflat minor and I get syntax error.
Yes, you would. Unless you are using \include for the non-default
language convention (Dutch, in which flat notes are written with a -
es added [such as bes for Bb] and sharp notes are written -is [such
as ais for A#]), you would write:
\transpose f bes {a4 b4 c4 d4 etc.} which would result in a new chart
in B flat major.
If you search the docs for \transpose, this is all explained.
