I have turned out a few simple jobs with LilyPond, mainly simple copying
jobs just for practice and -- as a practical matter -- a few pieces that I
needed to transpose into another key.

However, as I look at LilyPond code generated by others, it's not obvious to
me (usually near the end of a document) what each closing curly brace refers
to.

Am I even SUPPOSED to be able to figure that out by looking at all the
closed curly braces, usually at different indentations on different lines?
 Are you supposed to see these things and know to what they apply in the
code above?  Is there a logic here that I'm missing?

I am trying to figure out the logic of why the close braces (in particular)
appear where they are and at a given indentation.  So far there's nothing
intuitive about it.

Such documentation as I've been able to find at the LilyPond site and
elsewhere has been of limited utility in this regard.

Is this something you just learn by doing?  Or can anybody help me out?
