Many thanks, I'm new at this and didn't notice the warnings. I would have preferred to see an error, actually. I will hunt down a way to enforce all warnings as errors... Quite excellent and powerful!!

Best regards,
Avram

Thank you, by adding curly brackets it is getting closer in that I
now see piano-staves, but they come out staggered rather than linear!!
How can I get the staves now in a linear fashion?

Did you read the warnings that were printed out when you ran lilyond???

Processing `test.ly'
Parsing...
Interpreting music...
warning: cannot find or create new `staff'

As you can see, you mistyped Staff as staff (upper-/lowercase is relevant). As
soon as you use
  \new Staff = ...
things work as expected.

Cheers,
