Here's a code snippet demonstrating what I want to do.

marks = {
s1
\mark "A"
s1
}

violin = {
\clef treble
\time 4/4
e'4 g' f' d'
% \mark "A"
e'1
\bar "|."
}

continuo = {
\clef bass
\time 4/4
c2 g2
% \mark "A"
c1
\bar "|."
}

In the continuo and violin parts, you can see where I have commented out a
rehearsal mark. Instead of adding that rehearsal mark to both parts, I want
to use the "marks" variable to add the rehearsal mark to both parts. I want
to create one score combining the continuo and marks, and another score
combining the violin and marks. What I don't know how to do is write the
score objects properly.

Here's what I've tried so far, that has not worked.

Like I said before, every way I've tried adding marks results in an extra
blank staff. I tried using \RemoveEmtpyStaffContext, but that also
eliminated staves that have rests on them, which I don't want. I tried
adding marks as a voice to one of the parts, but this made my rests stems
go all wonky, so that's no good either. I have not included examples of my
faulty attempts at creating a score, as I don't see them being particularly
informative.
