Here's an ugly workaround:
\score{
\relative c {
\clef bass
\once \override Staff.Clef #'stencil = ##f
\once \override Staff.TimeSignature #'stencil = ##f
\partial 4
s4
\bar ""
\set Staff.forceClef = ##t
\once \override Staff.Clef #'full-size-change = ##t
\time 4/4
Hi,When I write timpani parts I specify the tuning this way:tuning = \markup { \score { \new Staff \with { \remove Time_signature_engraver } { \set Staff.instrument = "Tuning: "
