New piece header in the same score

[Heather W. Reichgott]

Here's what I use.  Should help with the font sizes too, because the
header default font size is larger than the default font size for
markup.  Don't be afraid of markup code, it doesn't have to be
complicated :) and the section on markup in the documentation is
helpful if you want to fine-tune the way it looks.


\header {
        title = "Pas de deux"
        composer = "Heather W. Reichgott"
}

\markup {
        \fill-line { \line { "1. Adagio" }}
}

\score {
<<
music for the first section goes here
>>
}

\markup {
        \fill-line { \line { "2. Variation" }}
}

\score {
<<      
music for the second section goes here
>>
}

etc.
