What do you want to achieve, more precisely?
Note that \with uses a different lexical mode than music, so e.g. the 
\override keyword does not produce a music expression when used inside \with.

You can probably perform operations on the whole \with block if you are 
clever, by applying a funciton on the \new expression, like
\myFun \new Staff=foo \with {bla bla} {music}
