The two characters U+2197 and U+2198 are not in TeX Gyre Schola.  This
means that LilyPond (via FontConfig) looks up the available fonts of
your OS to find another font that has them.  Obviously it finds
different fallback fonts on the two platforms, which is not
surprising.

A solution is obvious: Find a font that contains these two characters,
install them on both computers, and modify your markup command so that
this font gets explicitly used.
