Subject: [TeX-music] Bar numbering and anacrusis

Put the statements in this very order:

\startbarno=0
\nobarnumbers
\startpiece
{first measures before the first line break}
\systemnumbers
{other measures before the first line break}
{rest of the piece}


Have a look at:
http://icking-music-archive.sunsite.dk/scores/coulon/salon2.zip

The first two pieces village.tex and carnesp.tex have such anacruses.
The complete volume salon2.tex is made with \input statements.
I'have a look to see of I have already solved your second problem.

Hope this helps.
