Re: Sections or movements in a piece
Thank you for that answer that works for me. I didn't realise there could
be multiple scores

Wouldn't they be completely separate pieces? Or are they "movements" as
in they are two parts of a single piece?
In any case, the way to typeset that in Lilypond is simply to use
multiple \score blocks:
\version "2.25.1"
\score {
% first nursery rhyme here
}
\score {
% second nursery rhyme here
}
They will be put on a single page if they fit, otherwise they will be
put on separate pages.

Sections or movements in a piece
Hello all, I'm on Ubuntu and currently only have version 2.22.1 installed so I could upgrade a few versions by installing outside the package manager, if that was required. I'm not the music notation, or music, expert and not sure what is the exact term for what it is I'm trying to do. I was search for "section" or "movement" thinking that might be the classical tern for it. I'm trying to put two distinct parts of music into a single score. So for example if you were putting two nursery rhymes into a single page of sheet music and the first is section A and second is Section B. I hope that makes some sense to people, but I'm sure I'm probably using the wrong terminology, and confusing the thing.
