resorted to lilypond for now  (  \new Staff = "Blah" \with { 
instrumentName = #"Blah" } ) to get my instrument name/labels in the 
final PDF

Also, attaching things to the FIRST note in a bar causes bizarre things 
sometimes:

I attached a mezopiano to the first note of a bar, and that caused a 
partial muting!  That bar and all the subsequent bars got muted, until a 
few bars later some other directive unmuted it (for regular denemo playback)

Then, I got the previously discussed lilypond failure (INVALID lilypond) 
when I attached the \circle lilypond code to the first note of a bar ( 
^\markup \circle "A" )  — when I moved this same lilypond code over one 
note to the right (to the SECOND note of the bar), lilypond rendered OK.

Also, I changed \mp to \p  for the "piano" dynamic, on lilypond level.
