Setting this to #0 moves the music up to follow the titles, leaving a
larger gap at the bottom, but does not prompt LilyPond to avoid the page
break - it behaves as if there was a manual page break three systems
before the end. As before, setting systems-per-page = #10 moves the last
three systems onto the first page with the music starting right after
the last title now.

Thanks for the help!
