When LilyPond gives a bar check error, keep a cool head and proofread
the measures in question carefully.

The first error is around this passage:

    R1*3/2  | % m14
\mBreak
  r1| % m15


Your time signature is 3/2, and you have a measure with just
a whole note instead of a whole and a half. Not right.

The second error is around this:

    r4 a' a' cs'' d''8 fs'' e'' fs''  | % m14
\mBreak
    d''8 fs' g' b' a'2
    r8 e'' d'' e'' cs'' e'' d'' cs'' d''4 cs''8 e''  | % m15


The measure after \mBreak cumulates the durations

1st line: 4 8th notes + one half note = one whole note
2nd line: 10 8th notes + 1 quarter note = one whole note and a half

Overall: two whole notes and a half. Again, not right.

Either you made some typos in the durations while editing, or you
forgot a \time command.

Best,
