Your structure is: 

A StaffGroup (winds) in parallel with a PianoStaff (harps), and another
StaffGroup (strings) consisting of a GrandStaff in parallel with a Staff and
a Second GrandStaff.

But you don't have the SimultaneousMusic indicators << before the first
StaffGroup, so LilyPond doesn't know how to deal with the winds staff group
followed by the harps piano staff.

The solution:  Add a << before the first \new StaffGroup, and make sure you
match << with >> appropriately.
