it is 2 inches down from the tite of the piece

This mostly is controlled by Upper Vertical Size of Visual Staff Properties.
'Justify printed systems vertically' in Page Setup->Options has some effect.

I would like it larger.

This is controlled by Notation Typeface - Print Size of Page Setup Command.
Standard music is mostly 18pt. Typical range is 14-22pt. Odd sizes, e.g. 17pt, 21pt, ... are the same as even sizes. I do not recommend odd sizes.
