Functions like transpose act destructively on their argument, so you
need a copy or the original will get changed. Write $music to get a
copy, or use ly:music-deep-copy .

Correct. Scheme syntax is very simple. Some characters like ()" act as
delimiters, but most others are only split into words with intervening
spaces. LilyPond syntax is different, but writing # or $ hands control
over to the Scheme parser.
