Hi Iris,
Org considers the version of the file with only top-levels shown as
the most folded version and does not provide commands that will hide
these.
If the sparse tree exposes an entry deep in the hierarchy, it will
also show the entire headline hierarchy above it. In another reply to
your message, Giovanni has pointed out correctly that the variable org-
show-hierarchy-above can be used to turn off this feature. However,
the top-level headlines are always excluded from this, they are always
visible. Maybe you have set up your file in a way that each project
is a top-level headline? A way out would then be to demote all these
to level two under a top-level headline "Projects" or so. If you then
turn off `org-show-hierarchy-above', maybe you will get closer to the
view you did expect.
