With 2.12.2, the overture compiles (with some warnings), and looks OK on a4 paper, except for the last page, where bar numbers are printed for non-existant staves. Also the copyright notice on the first page collides with the music.
With 2.13.9, the 'cello parts run off the bottom of the first page, and on the second and third pages the systems are expanded to fill the page instead of taking their natural height. The problem with bar numbers from bar 40 is still there. I've found the problem for the bar numbers: on line 357 of overture.ly you've typed 111 instead of 11 for the number of rests. Putting an explicit \break after bar 6 gives a nice page turn (almost all parts have rests) and fixes the spacing problem on A4 paper.
