Chris,
Can
you post your code or attach a file so we can see what you've tried?
You can be explicit about the vertical location of the staves, but I
imagine that's not what you want to do.

I have an SATB score with
interludes between verses. I've built the score in a choir staff group
with 4 staves for each vocal range and a 5th staff for the interlude.
I'm hiding empty staves for the parts that are not singing. For example,
one part is sopranos and altos so the tenor and bass parts are hidden
during that verse.
The musical interlude staff is built with rests in all verses so only the music that is played during the interlude shows.
I'm
trying to reduce the spacing between the staves in the interlude
sections but nothing seems to be working. See the attached screenshot.
The
interlude staff is the last staff in the system. I'm using
staff-staff-spacing to reduce the spacing of the SATB parts. I've tried
the system-system-spacing in the \paper block setting the
basic-distance to 8.
Any suggestions?
Thanks,
Chris
