Increasing distance between Title and Composer

[Walter Hofmeister]

Does anyone know how to increase the distance between the Title of a piece
and the Composer line? I used to be able to do this:

title = "TheTitle \\vspace{1\cm}"

Track... 
Layout output to `TheTitle.tex'...
Converting to `TheTitle.dvi'...
Error invoking `latex \\nonstopmode \\input TheTitle.tex > /dev/null 2>&1 '.
Return value 256
Converting to `TheTitle.ps'...
Converting to `TheTitle.pdf'...

Analyzing TheTitle.tex...
Running ...

lilypond-latex: error: The error log is as follows:

! Undefined control sequence.

       %
The control sequence at the end of the top line
of your error message was never \def'ed. If you have
misspelled it (e.

Any ideas how to achieve this.
