Sorry,
a closer look showed me that your request was quite the opposite of what
my suggestion could provide :-(
Really a \header block is a top-level expression that can't be written
inside a \score:

Sorry again, I don't see an easy solution for your question (although it
should be possible with Scheme ...)

Two things:
One; This looks like I would need to create a separate header file for each
chorale. This might not be quite what I'd prefer.
Two; I couldn't make it work anyway.
When you say:
"You may put your \header in a separate file and \include it where you
want it to appear."
Do you mean:
\score {
\definedScoreStuff
\header {
\include "headerFile.ly"
}
}

You may put your \header in a separate file and \include it where you
want it to appear.
Does that help you?

I think I've probably answered my own question already.
I want to define a header block and then use the definition later.
What I'm trying to do and why:
I'm putting together a book of chorales for trombone quartet. I have the music
for each part defined. Then I create \score blocks containing the
'\definitions'. With a whole book of these the \book{} block was getting a bit
blinding to read. I figured out how to define my \score blocks and then use my
'\scoreDefinitions' to greatly reduce the complex look of the \book{} file.
The \header, however, seems to require being in the final \book{} block. That
is, I can't do:
headerOne = {
title = "Title"
composer = "Composer"
}
...and then use:
\headerOne
...inside a \score block. I'm using; print-all-headers = ##t, so I can print
all the title/subtitle info for each chorale.
Depending on how I try, LilyPond throws errors like "unexpected \header" or
something about a problem with a music definition. This has led me to conclude that
pre-defining things works with musical information, but not otherwise. Headers are not
musical information.
Is there a way to do this, or am I stuck with putting the header blocks in the
\book{} block?
