What is the right way to write a grace note at the beginning of the score (or
after a clef/time/key signature change)?
But this issue does not mention a workaround? Does anybody know a trick?
The trick in this case is to add a grace note spacer to the other staff.
Notice that I changed << . . . >> to { . . . } in your example to make it work.
{
\new PianoStaff <<
\new Staff { % changed from <<
\key bes \major

a''1 )
