Re: lilypond-book and pagebreaking

[Mats Bengtsson]

As far as I can see, the command \betweenLilyPondSystem is used both
between headers and music as well as between score lines, so the only
reason I can see that it's more likely to get a break after a header may
be that the score lines take more vertical space than the headers, so if
LaTeX has to make a page break anyway, then it will be easier to fit
in the header at the bottom of a page than another score line.

Do you have more than a single score in each lilypond block? Otherwise,
it should be possible to insert some command before each lilypond block to
encourage LaTeX to make page breaks there, rather than within the 
lilypond block.
