Hi Peter,
Using \bookpart? E.g.:

%%
\version "2.24"

\paper {
  % ...
}

\header {
  title = "Two-movement Score"
  subtitle = " For A Single Melodic Instrument"
}

FirstMovement = { s1*32 }

\bookpart {
  \paper {
    system-system-spacing.basic-distance = 10
  }
  \score {
     \new Staff { \FirstMovement }
     \layout { system-count = 10 }
  }
  \header {
    piece = "First Movement"
  }
}
%\pageBreak

SecondMovement = { s1*32 }

\bookpart {
  \paper {
    system-system-spacing.basic-distance = 15
  }
  \score {
     \new Staff { \SecondMovement }
     \layout {
       system-count = 10
     }
  }
  \header {
    title = ""
    subtitle = ""
    piece = "Second Movement"
  }
}
%%

Cheers,
Pierre
