The opposite command, @code{\unset}, effectively removes the
@code{\context} block within a @code{\layout} block. Each
@code{\context} block will affect all contexts of the type specified
throughout the @code{\score} or @code{\book} block in which the

accompaniment which is not derived automatically from the vocal parts.
