Thanks for the tip, Mats. My problem now is that I use pdflatex and 
LilyPond uses "pure" latex. The command "lilypond" recognizes a 
--pdftex flag, but "lilypond-book" doesn't. Is there a way to use 
pdflatex instead of "pure" latex? This is the error I get (after 
running lilypond-book and typesetting the modified latex source with 
pdflatex):

The control sequence at the end of the top line
of your error message was never \def'ed. If you have
misspelled it (e.g., `\hobx'), type `I' and the correct
spelling (e.g., `I\hbox'). Otherwise just continue,
and I'll forget about whatever was undefined.

I suppose the problem is the "\embeddedps" command. pdflatex doesn't 
know about it. Am I correct?

Cheers,
Ernesto.
