I have a hard time imagining what you'd be writing after \relative if
you can't even remember the name of middle C.
Without knowing at least_one_ absolute pitch, anchoring \relative will
be a challenge.
I simply crib the start of everything from previous pieces. And I think
my standard start snippet is something like "\transpose c c \relative bf
{" - now how do you know I'm a brass player in the bass clef :-) And if
the transpose looks odd it's because I play both concert and Bf.
Actually, come to mention it, I do remember middle C being c', and it's
always felt odd to me. It's the first note with an ', no? So my standard
range is the notes with neither , nor ', and remembering where it
changes isn't a priority for me seeing as I almost never use absolute
pitches :-)
