Thanks for that suggestion, which I have now tried.  Unfortunately it
does not seem to have the hoped-for result.

But it does raise another interesting question: how do I get tempo
markings etc. to appear once above the score but also in each individual
part?  I cannot find any reference to this in the Lilypond documentation
(although I am sure it must be in there somewhere).  Previous pieces I
have set in Lilypond have been for a single instrument or for a solo
instrument with piano, so the question has not arisen before (because
the markings are above the solo part in any case).  Do I perhaps need to
have them in something like a separate Dynamics context which can be
included in each part when it is extracted?
