I suggest you use `\markup \table` for the overall structure, and
`\score` markup blocks within for the actual music. Something like
```
\version "2.24.0"
musicA = \markup \score { { c'1 } }
musicB = \markup \score { { d'8 e' } }
musicC = \markup \score { { f'4 g' } }
musicD = \markup \score { { a'2 b' } }
\markuplist {
\override #'((padding . 20)
(baseline-skip . 10))
\table #'(-1 -1) {
\musicA \musicB
\musicC \musicD
}
}
```
