Hi Carlo,

have a look at /ly/engraver-init.ly. You'll see in `Dynamics' no
Font_size_engraver.
Don't know, whether it's intended or not.

But if you put in this engraver, your example works:

\version "2.16.0"

upper = \relative c'' { a4 b c d }

lower = \relative c' { a2\fff \tiny c_\pp } % no problem

dynamics = \displayMusic { s2\fff \tiny s2-\pp } % works now

\score {
  \new PianoStaff = "PianoStaff_pf" <<
    \new Staff = "Staff_pfUpper" \upper
    \new Dynamics = "Dynamics_pf" \with { \consists
"Font_size_engraver" } \dynamics
    \new Staff = "Staff_pfLower" \lower
>>
}


HTH,
