I see, thank you! I didn't know that.

I'm making a document containing trumpet fanfares and signals, and I 
thought I might do something like this.
For each fanfare I write:

FanfareOneMelody = { ... }
FanfareOneTitle = "Text"
FanfareOneScore = {
 \FanfareOneMelody
 \header { piece = \FanfareOneTitle }
}

And then I'll just put a identifier for each score

\FanfareOneScore
\FanfareTwoScore
...

But the way you pointed out works, so I'll stick with that instead, i.e

\score { \FanfareOneMelody \header { piece = \FanfareOneTitle } }
