Mats- It was not until I actually could get an error log that I could
start to fix the file. However you have brought up a couple of things.
Last -first by changing the \score to new Staff from context I am now
able to get midi and pdf files to look at what it going on.
I am getting something odd in the pdf re; the piano parts don't have
staff lines and there is an extra clef sign above the piano brace.
So there is something I am missing about entering a piano setup--
So to the first comment about defining an instrument twice- could you
explain that? I copied the 'code' directly from the jazz combo section
of the manual, if that is giving us redundancy or misleading then how
does one fix that?

Here, you provide two different definitions of \flute.
Even though LilyPond actually does what you want, I wouldn't
consider it a particularly good idea.
This is the part of your message I didn't understand.
Here is the Piano section as I typed it in
%piano parts
rh = \relative c' {
\Key
c1 c c
}
lh = \relative c {
\Key
c1 c c
}
PianoRH = {
\clef treble
\global
\set Staff.midiInstrument = "acoustic grand"
}
PianoLH = {
\clef bass
\global
\set Staff.midiInstrument = "acoustic grand"
}
piano = {
\context PianoStaff <<
\set PianoStaff.instrument = #"Piano"
\context Staff = upper \PianoRH
\context Staff = lower \PianoLH
>>
}
but as I wrote above this produces no staff lines from the brace and an
extra treble clef above the piano part with no label.
So either something is extra here or mistyped but not an 'error'.
Thanks
Jay
