Dear all,
is it correct that the values of \transposition are not handled in a 
relative manner within transposed sections?

So if I have music written in concert pitch in and want to use it for 
let's say clarinet in b, I have to

.) \transpose c' d'
.) use \transposition c' ? (please see att. files; my problem was 
related to producing correct cuenote-pitches)

Is this supposed to be the way to do it (of course I tapped into the 
"it-has-to-be-\transposition bes -trap" and it took me quite a while  
find the trick) ?

BTW, thanks for all your work/effort/patience to make lilypond and this 
list the way they are!

Bernhard
