Thanks for the very quick reply! Yes, indeed I want to decrease the 
hairpin's height. Your solution works perfectly.

For sake of consistency, the following syntax still is a minor 
improvement, that may allow scaling of all sizings involved through a 
single variable (if one would replace -3 by a variable).

\override Hairpin #'height = #(* 0.66 (magstep -3)) % default: 0.66

Thanks,
Marten
