Hello Jesse,
might it be that you are installing the fonts wrongly? The font files should directly go into the otf folder, with no subdirectories or whatever.

Valentin -- That's exactly the path I've been trying to no avail. I tracked down that folder but the fonts just aren't being recognized as having been installed.
Jean -- I always have a bit of anxiety that I'm missing something obvious when I'm planning on writing to the mailing list and this would appear to be such a situation :). I'll look over that thread (which I see now). Thank you!
Best,Jesse

Hello Jesse,
I cannot say anything for sure (lacking a mac to try this on), but
theoretically you just need to find the folder homebrew installs the packages
to (according to the internet /usr/local/Cellar), find the folder for lilypond
and and put the fonts into share/lilypond/current/fonts/
Cheers,
Valentin
