Lilypond – Music notation for everyone

LilyPond is an automated engraving system. It formats music beautifully and automatically, and has a friendly syntax for its input files.

Refer to the Lilypond FAQ for further information

Installation

Shell Access

As the preferred method to enter a score is a text editor, any editor can edit the files stored on the server.

If you have trustworthy users give them shell access. They can then compile the lilypond source and produce a .pdf file for printing and optionally a .midi file eg. 

lilypond /home/e-smith/files/ibays/scores/mozart/K321.ly

Shell access lets users use all the features of Lilypond, such as importing a .midi file 

lilypond --importmidi  /home/e-smith/files/ibays/scores/mozart/K123.midi
