Slurs spanning music objects

[Christopher R. Maden]

I have been playing with the articulate package (which is great).  The
MIDIs I’m getting for my tunes are vastly improved.

But in traditional tunes, legato phrases often span repeats, and I’m
having trouble getting that to work.

tunePickUp = {
  \relative c' {
    \partial 4
    r8 b'(
  }
}

tuneStrainOne = {
  \relative c' {
    a'4) a8( b a fs e d |
  }
}

tuneLayout = {
  <<
    \new Staff <<
      \tunePickUp
      \repeat volta 2 {
        \tuneStrainOne
      }
    >>
  >>
}

This obviously doesn’t work, but I’m not sure how to get the effect both
in the laid out score and the \articulated MIDI.  What am I overlooking?

Thanks in advance,
crism

Bonus: can you Name That Tune in one bar or less?
