My apologies to Malte for (apparently) ignoring his suggestion.  His email
didn't come through to my inbox and it didn't occur to me to even check
online.

Malte - I understand that only doing transposition at the score level would
work.  However, I'm entering some music from printed instrument parts so
I'd much prefer to enter them "as is" instead of have to transpose in my
head.  Usually this isn't a problem, but the piece I'm working on has these
quoted sections, and based on the lilypond documentation I thought this was
the preferred way to go.  Since in this case I don't really need the
trumpet part (other than to quote into the clarinet part), I can just put
the trumpet notes directly into the clarinet part and dispense altogether
with quoteDuring.  But it's an interesting question exactly how to get this
to work in the more general case.

Regarding your off-topic questions/suggestions.  My snippit originally used
whole notes, and when I decided quarter notes would be better I forgot to
remove the incorrect bar checks.  As far as correct octave marks, thanks
for the suggestion.  I've solved that in other cases if the octavation
turns out wrong by transposing the whole thing up (or down) an octave.  And
I'll keep in mind that the '#' and "" are optional for \quoteDuring.  I
typically just copy/paste examples from the documentation.

Thanks!
