Hi Ben! The include command is very easy to understand. Just read the chapter in the manual or do a quick search and you'll get the grasp of it in no time. Some parts are split in two files: "InstrumentNameMusic.ly" and "InstrumentName.Score.ly". The part is generated from the latter. The former contains only the music itself (notes, rests, slurs, etc.) A few parts are not divided this way and show only the name of the instrument, meaning that everything needed to generate the score is in there. I don't know which operating system you use. I'm on a Mac with Snow Leopard 10.6.8. I use Frescobaldi as a GUI. So it's just a blank page? Isn't there some error mesage?
