long time ago, but I once started a little project called org-bandbook,
its on my tj64 account on github.
The interesting part about is its importing funcionality for lilypond
songs from another github repo (open book I think), where a guy
transposed hundreds of popular standard (real book) tunes to lilypond with
some Ruby framework code, which I replaced by ob-lilypond code. The idea was to 
manage songs, band, concert
rehearsals etc in Org-mode, and to be able to easily transpose songs
(its ob-lilypond) for Bb or Eb instruments or so.

OTOH isn't managing a choir or band quite similar to managing a project,
and thus (ob-)taskjuggler would be a very helpful tool here?
