2.15 Adding titles

Bibliographic information is entered in a separate block, the \header block. The name of the piece, its composer, etc., are entered as an assignment, within \header { ... }. The \header block is usually put at the top of the file. For example,

\header {
  title = "Miniature"
  composer = "Igor Stravinsky"
}

{ ... }

When the file is processed, the title and composer are printed above the music. More information on titling can be found in Creating titles.
