Aha - I finally understand the problem (sorry - being slow). What's actually going on is an underfull \vbox which I'd failed to notice before in the transcript before. TeX expands stretchable glue infinitely in an underfull box (<rant>it is the single most annoying thing I find about TeX and have had to work-around that illogical decision on many occasions...</rant>) How does putting \musicparskip before \startpiece and \vskip\parskip before \eject (and no other \vskip's) look to you?
