One solution is to use the \RemoveEmptyStaffContext and simply insert multimeasure rests in the second stave. Then, LilyPond will automatically remove the second stave and the opening brace on the lines where there are no notes.
Example:
uppervoice=\new Staff \notes\relative c'{
c d e f g a b c c b a g f e d c
c d e f g a b c c b a g f e d c
c d e f g a b c c b a g f e d c
}lowervoice=\new Staff \notes\relative c''{
c b a g f e d c c d e f g a b c \break
R1*4 \break
c4 b a g f e d c c d e f g a b c }\score{
\new GrandStaff <<
\uppervoice
\lowervoice
>>
\paper{
\context {
\RemoveEmptyStaffContext
}
}
}

Hi, a month ago I had a little problem which I still haven't found a solution for. I was engraving a piece of music where the first violin is split into upper and lower voice, which was notated by using two staves and a group bracket. At one time in the piece, the split is lost and all first violins play in unison. I was able to drop the second stave, but no matter what I did, there was always a group bracket around the single stave left. What is the correct way to engrave this? Cheers
Alex
