What is "instanced"? How does such an "attempt to produce a single
score" look like?

I am not surprised that using the cues before defining them does not
work. This is probably not what you mean but it is not clear what you
mean.

"Attempts causes failure but when cues are defined"? Sorry, I don't get
what you are saying here.

How do you use book and bookpart sections? You are aware that book and
bookpart sections cannot contain assignments at top level? But that's
nothing that changed "since 2015".

Maybe that would help making more focused descriptions as well.

Problem associated with multiple quote sources
I have done some digging with small files.
1. putting each set of potential cues as reqd. as the first lines in each
music file (Movement) works :
cueNotesOneA=\include "file1.ily"
\addQuote "cueNotesOneA" { \cueNotesOneA }
Etc...
2. when several music files are instanced in an attempt to produce a single
score this fails
3. when this input is changed: Move the list the cues to BEFORE each
\score {.} section it works
4. However attempts to include a Header file (title dates text and .eps
picture) for the first page and header text for each movement causes
failure but when cues are defined.
5. I use Book and BookPart sections to produce a score but just using
bookpart sections also causes failure
6. I will try and reduce these complication header complications to isolate
the issue one step at a time.

If you want to see what syntactical entities LilyPond encounters and how it reacts to them, you can run it with option -ddebug-parser . The output will be humongous. You can direct it to a file and try capturing the last few dozen lines before the error to guess what may be happening. -- David Kastrup
Problem associated with multiple quote sources
Some time ago (2015) I prepared a quintet version of the Farrenc Nonetto. To
make things easier I added copious quotes to the many long chains of rests
to help the players. For this purpose I created an ily containing a set of
music for each line & movement (without cues) so that I could pick and chose
quotes to go virtually anywhere. This worked fine then but today it runs
into trouble.
\version "2.19.81"
%Preamble cut for brevity
% potential sources of cues for Movement One ( bare indicates music without
any cues)
cueNotesOneA=\include "Op38_Alto_L2_M1_bare.ily"
\addQuote "cueNotesOneA" { \cueNotesOneA }
cueNotesOneB=\include "Op38_Clarinet_L3_M1_bare.ily"
\addQuote "cueNotesOneB" { \cueNotesOneB }
%similar data to above for other parts cut out for brevity
\relative c'' {
% Tempo and some notes etc cut out for brevity
es2 g2 ) | % 6
as2 f2 | % 7
g4 r4 r4 r4 | % 8
% example of a cue
\new CueVoice \with { instrumentCueName="clt3" }
\cueDuring #"cueNotesOneB" #UP {\set Score.skipBars = ##t s1*4/4*3 }
% large chunkof notes cut out for brevity
es'4\f r4 r4 | % 413
c4 r4 r4 | % 414
\bar "|."
}
This works as expected for each movement on its own.
But when I combine the movements in a single file and include a frontpage
(in the usual way) I get error messages such as
C:/Users/Peter/Lilypool/Music_Files/Farrenc/Op38_Alto_L2_M1.ily:7:1: error:
not a note name: cueNotesOneA
This also prevents the production of a complete score with all parts.
I realise the above is not a particularly small clip but it is the general
application of lots of quotes in a longish piece which is no longer working
as before.
The parts and score files are far too large to include here.
I have been pulling out the few remaining hairs if anyone knows why things
have changed since 2015 I would be very grateful
