Re: combining files

[Mats Bengtsson]

What didn't work?

First of all, you can skip the \book command, which is implicitly
added around any LilyPond input file if you don't write it yourself.

Also, within each \score{...}, the music should come before the 
\header, \layout and \midi, at least in most versions of LilyPond
(I think it was unintentionally permitted to have the music after
the other fields in some versions (2.6?) but then you'll get into
trouble when you upgrade).

Finally, if you want a full header on every score, take a look at
http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/lilypond-user/2005-11/msg00069.html

Otherwise, what you sketch below should work fine.
