Adjusting slurs and brackets

I'm having trouble understanding the documentation on slurs and
brackets. I guess I'm one of those people who understand examples
better than detailed description.

So, could someone please give me a code snippet on how to raise or
lower the vertical placement of a slur relative to the notes (or if
possible, relative to the fingering, which it collides with).

Also, I need to see code on how to adjust the placement and height of
the curly bracket at the left of, say, a piano score. I need to know
the following:

(a) How to move the bracket so it doesn't collide with the instrument
name. Or vice versa: how to move the instrument name so it doesn't
collide with the bracket. In ascii art the problem appears like this:

pia{no

I want it to appear with generous spacing like this:

piano   {

(b) How to reduce the height of the bracket so it doesn't collide with
the  bar (measure) number at the top left of the treble staff.

TIA
