Re: Chord Names running into Header

[Mats Bengtsson]

If you use version 2.2 or earlier, the easiest solution is
probably to add below the composer name (as opposed to adding
it above the top staff). Try
\header{
  ...
  composer = "The Composer\\vspace{5mm}"
}

As an alternative, you could add an empty arranger field:

    arranger = "{}"
