\version "2.15.32"

theMusic = \relative c' { \repeat "unfold" 16 c4 }

\new GrandStaff <<
   \set GrandStaff.instrumentName = #"Corni"
   \set GrandStaff.shortInstrumentName = #"Cor."
   \new Staff {
     \set Staff.instrumentName = #"I"
     \set Staff.shortInstrumentName = #"I"
     \theMusic

   \new Staff {

   \new Staff {

      (ly:stencil-scale (ly:system-start-delimiter::print grob) 0.75 1))
