Yeah.  Try this:
   %%pageheight 60cm

Let us know whether abcm2ps handles it correctly.  I've never used  a
page  this  tall,  but  I  have  used nonstandard page sizes, and the
original abc2ps did a fine job with them.   This  is  something  that
isn't  part  of  abc it self, of course, because it has nothing to do
with the musical information.

Note that you can also vary the "font size" of  the  music  with  the
scaling factor.  You can use -s 0.50 on the command line, or put
  %%scale 0.55
in the abc.  You can get really tiny, unreadable music this way.
