This seems to work: \score { \new PianoStaff \with { \override StaffGrouper #'staff-staff-spacing #'basic-distance = #20 } << \new Staff { \clef treble c'4 } \new Staff { \clef bass c'4 } >> \layout { } } > (2) Here's a snippet of code that we'd like to amend to change > lilypond's default behaviour.
