Hi Abraham & Kieren!

Editing an example to send you, and sniffing
more in the LP docs, I happened to trip over
" #(set-global-staff-size 20) ".

When I told my score to reduce that default
by 1, the vertical-space problem evaporated.

So my original question -- How reduce space
between same-page \score's? -- is moot, at
least for this time around.

Thanks, tho, for your responses.
Pete
