titles & scores

[mark damerell]

V. 2.12.3

I am trying to set a file that consists of several short pieces, each
with a title. Each piece is a  \score and each title a \markup:

header of whole file

\markup { title 1}

\score 1

 \markup { title 2}

\score 2

etc.

I think that there is too much vertical space between each title and its
score, even with

  after-title-space=0\cm

I tried putting the titles into a  \header block in each score, that made
the problem worse.
Also Lilypond frequently breaks pages between a
title and its score.

Please any advice? thank you
