Re: Transposing Keyless Brass Parts

[Glassmenagerie]

Thanks for the help !

On my computer, I use Linux Ubuntu 16.04.  When you get Frescobaldi from the
Ubuntu repository, it comes with Lilypond 2.18.2.   I've not heard about the
OpenLilyLib auto-transpose snippet.  Where to get it or how to use it.  I'll
do some more research into that.  Thanks.   So, from Torsten's comments, see
how this looks:

First, get the F trumpet some key signatures.  Concert Ab puts the F trumpet
in Eb.   Later in the movement ( not shown in the ex: ) when the concert
pitch changes to C then back to Ab, add the key commands for those: to G and
back to Eb.

Then use the transpose command to get notes and key signature for the Bb
trumpet.

\score { 

  \transpose ees bes {  
  \relative g' { 
  \time 2/4 
      
  \key ees \major
  
  g8[-.\p g ( aes ) aes] ( 
  g g4 ) g8 ( 
  f ) f4 f8 ( 
  g\<[ ) g ( f\> ees]\! ) 
  d4 ( c 
  bes2 ) 
  
  \bar "|." 
  
  } 
 }
}

By accident I came across another possible solution.

\score { 


  \transpose c g {     
  \relative g' { 
  \time 2/4 
      
  g8[-.\p g ( aes ) aes] ( 
  g g4 ) g8 ( 
  f ) f4 f8 ( 
  g\<[ ) g ( f\> ees]\! ) 
  d4 ( c 
  bes2 ) 
  
  \bar "|." 
  
  } 
  } 
}

This seems to work for the notes.  Any reason not to do this ?  Also there's
no key signature.  The effect is to transpose up 7 intervals.
