I ended up using score-markup-spacing markup-system-spacing markup-markup-spacing and system-system-spacing and learning something about basic distance, minimum distance, and stretchability, although I'm still not entirely comfortable with them (or their logical/program meanings).

Spacing of titles and text in a \book
Greetings - I've been using LilyPond for a long time now, and *really* like it. I transcribe and transpose classical music and fiddle tunes for myself and friends. I'm running LilyPond 2.19.81 with Frescobaldi 3.0.0 under Linux/Ubuntu 18.04.1. I'm putting together a collection of fiddle tunes, and I've run into a spacing problem. I've tried to make a MWE, but it's still sort of long. I'm having difficulties with the spacing. The title of the Collection and the title of the first tune are closer than I like, and the distance between a line of text after a tune and the title of the next tune is close enough that it sometimes looks like the text goes with the following tune. Any suggestions for an easy, preferably \book -wide solution?
