I have been working on a Collection of Scottish bagpipe music. Each tune (PIECE) consists of:
My strategy has been to create each individual section (ground & variations) within its own score and with its own header. This has worked well for me and given me a satisfactory result. My problem is when I try to gather these tunes into a book. Here the result is scrambled and I suspect it may have something to do with my basic structure. I enclose a simplified (I hope!) rendering of “A” the structure of each tune, and “B” my book module structure. If anyone would like to comment on thisI would be most grateful.
