I ran into this problem a couple weeks ago. You can't move text assigned to a multirest (or any single full-bar rest produced by "R"). Here's the fix:

\once \override TextScript #'extra-offset = #'(0 . 2.0) %you can use padding here, instead if you like
s1*0^\markup {No.1 Lent et douloureux}|
R1*3/4

The downside to this is that you cannot get \fatText to apply the width of the text attached to s1*0 to the R1 bar. But in your case, that should not matter.

Hi group,

I've tried all afternoon to get a text moved a little higher. I tried '\once \override' with extra-offset and padding in at least five different syntaxes
but nothing works. I also tried a separate \mark \markup for the text but
with no effect. I get no errors or warnings from LilyPond, the text just
seems to be glued firmly to the staff.

See bar 2, text 'No.1 Lent et douloureux'.

If anyone could help, I'd be much obliged.

kind regards,

Hans de Rijck.
