If you want to transpose the whole song, it's easiest to put the
\transpose in the score block instead of doing each staff separately.

It's almost never worth transposing individual voices unless you're
entering from different sources (for example, I once had the clarinet
part from one edition, and the flute part from a different edition,
and the piano and vocals from yet another edition, all in different
keys, and was trying to get something playable...)

\score {
       \transpose c bes \context GrandStaff <<
              ...
       >>
       \layout{
              ...
       }
}
