I usually try the following things:

- Increase the printing area on the paper:
\score {
  ...
  \paper{
    textheight=28.0\cm
    ...
  }
}

- Decrease the space between the score lines:
\score {
  ...
  \paper{
    interscoreline = 1.0\mm  % Default: 4.0\mm

    ...
  }
}

- If you decrease interscoreline, I also recommend to set
  interscorelinefill = 1
  which will cause the score lines to be evenly spaced on
  the available vertical space. Then you could even set
  interscoreline=0

Greetings,

I've just typeset 8 brass parts, and each part has one or two staves on page 2. Do you have a checklist of things to adjust, little by little, to bring all the music onto one page?

Thanks,

Daniel
