... which solves the B major part, but transposes f major to Fb major, which
is even more horrible to read than a# major...

but while we are at it:
why don't \transpose and \relative cooperate the "normal" way an innocent

in similar cases i am getting single notes in the wrong octave, and the

is that a bug or a feature?
