I was thinking of exploring the possibility of LaTex & Lilypond.
Has anybody out there done this kind of combo?
My entire Master's thesis was a combination of LaTeX and Lilypond---both
musical examples and the inclusion of an entire modern edition and
apparatus. The musical examples were embedded in the LaTeX source and the
individual pieces of the edition were contained in separate files. This
would give you arbitrary control over the styling of each piece. My
workflow:
- Run lilypond-book on the LaTeX file that contained the edition.
- Run lilypond-book on the two chapters that had examples.
- pdflatex
- bibtex
- pdflatex
- pdflatex
The LaTeX file that contained the edition was a string of:
\clearpage
\addcontentsline{toc}{section}{29. Et son del mio languir cos\`i contento
(seconda parte)}
\label{madrigal29}
\lilypondfile{01-3-29.ly}
It was really quite straightforward. The thesis can be viewed at:

I hope this helps.

P.S. I did not make a bigger deal on the list of the release of my thesis
because I was ashamed. Due to a stupid, stupid oversight, the "Typeset by
lilypond" tagline was omitted from the music of the edition. It was a
perfect opportunity to give back to the Lilypond community, and I miffed
it. I am deeply sorry. For what it's worth, Lilypond was an invaluable
part of my entire educational workflow, and essential to the thesis
itself. My adviser was really unsure whether Lilypond would produce the
desired output, but he was thrilled with the results. I evangelized to
every person that would listen in the department. I also used Lilypond to
typeset examples for a professor's book I was editing. He plans on
including a mention of Lilypond in the text. If that comes to fruition,
I'll let the list know.
