Sorry, but this is the best i can .
- make the first page a dummy ( my pmx is sensitive to page 2 (L2P2 does not
works, but L4P3 does)
- A little bit tex commands at the beginning (learned from W. Icking) and
the space between the systems vanish (try it out by making comments of the
texcommands)
- play with the \setinterinstrument5{4\Interligne}.... for adapting the
space
