Many thanks Jan-Peter,
this works perfectly. For the benefit of others, I applied it (after a
short struggle) thus:
\score {
<<
\new ChoirStaff
<<
\set ChoirStaff.systemStartDelimiter = #'SystemStartBar
\sopranoVoicePart
\altoVoicePart
\tenorVoicePart
\bassVoicePart
>>
\pianoPart
>>
\layout {
\context { \ChoirStaff \consists Keep_alive_together_engraver }
\context { \RemoveEmptyStaffContext }
}
}
