Re: Question about the header structure of the very first page of the score

[Valentin Petzel]

Hello Paolo,

Using the paper variables scoreTitleMarkup and bookTitleMarkup you can do 
custom formatting for titling Markup of individual scores and of the whole 
book.

You can override these to achieve your intended result or disable them 
completely and use custom markup for each header.

Note that your example is not in fact a header, but a cover page. You can 
create this as part of your score (although you do not have to), but if you do 
you need to make sure that the page numbers work (you do not want the backside 
of the cover page to have page number 2, or anything like that. I have 
appended an example of some score I did a while ago.

The score it self then has something like

\book {
  \pageBreak
  \copy
  \pageBreak
  \markup \vspace #5
  \preface
  \pageBreak
  \markup \vspace #13
  \markuplist \table-of-contents
  \markup \vspace #5
  \besetzung
  \pageBreak
  \markup \head
  \partKyrie
 etc
}

Cheers,
Valentin
