You can remove the opening brace by setting the following for the
PianoStaff context (add to your \layout block):
\context {
\PianoStaff
systemStartDelimiter = #'SystemStartBar
} % context

Add the following to your \paper block:
myStaffSize = #20
#(define fonts
(make-pango-font-tree "Times" "Times" "Luxi Mono"
(/ myStaffSize 20)))
The three font names stand for serif, sans serif, and mono font (I'm not
completely sure about the order though...), just add the desired fonts
there.
Only drawback: This changes *all* text in your score to the new font.
Cheers,
Matthias
