LilyPond 2.22, the latest stable version, does not have official
64-bit binaries, but as Thomas said, you can get around this by
installing from MacPorts.
Alternatively, you could use the latest unstable version, 2.23.13,
for which 64-bit binaries are provided officially. See
https://lilypond.org/development.html
The next stable release, LilyPond 2.24, will have 64-bit official
binaries and is planned to come around mid-December if all goes
well.
Best,

Thank you so much, Jean and Thomas!
I'm embarrassed to say, I read that info on the website, but didn't really "get it" since I'm not a Mac person and neither is she. We'll explore the MacPorts solution together.
Blessings!
