You have to redefine bookTitleMarkup and/or scoreTitleMarkup in a 
stylesheet that you use only for the full score, and enclose the entire 
\markup expression in \markup \larger \larger {} or the like.
It should be as simple as

%%%%%%%%%%%%%%
\paper {
  bookTitleMarkup = \markup \fontsize #3 #bookTitleMarkup
}

\header {
  title = "foo"
  composer = "J.Chr.bar"
}

\markup\null
%%%%%%%%%%%%%

however for reasons I don’t know only the composer actually gets larger… 
Anyone know why?
