Hi, again.
The task I'm attempting is to create an equivalent of a fake book. I'm
creating a tune in concert (C) and then collating it with other tunes
using \bookpart. That works fine for the most part. The problem is when
I want to have the fake book transposed (say for Ees). I end up with a
structure like:
%%%
\include "tune_a.ily"
\include "tune_b.ily"
\book {
\bookpart {
\score {
\transpose c a { \tune_a }
}
\bookpart {
\score {
\transpose c a { \tune_b }
}
% etc.
}
}
%%--
Which is a pain if I have a lot of tunes, I'm repeating this for each
key (for jazz it is common to have C, Bes, and Ees versions) and a mess
if I want to reorder tunes, make edits, and so on.
Is there a better and cleaner way to approach this problem?
TIA .. mark.
