-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA256I had a christmas carol "Zu Bethelem geboren" with is in F-Dur. That piece has a bass voice going to "großem F" more than once. Since the other voice are not at all at their upper limit, I thought to transpose the carol by 1 or 2 tones to G-Dur or A-Dur. This turned out difficult for the following reason. Using the \transposition with the \score \score { \transpositon D { \new ChoirStaff << ... >> } \layout {} \midi {} } gave error: wrong Typ of Argument 1, pitch expected, "D" found I than used \transpose for individual voices, which lost the \relative c'' property and the notes had to be individually positioned. Furthermore the whole piece is still noted in F-Dur which makes for some unusual naturals.
I'm rushing out for Christmas shopping, Bernhard, but one of your problems is that \relative must be *inside* the \transpose block.
Another quick thought: have you tried using Frescobaldi? One of the many powerful features is exactly what you need: the ability to select all of a piece and transpose from one to another pitch in a very smooth way.
