I use LilyPond at a relatively low level. Mostly just to re-write single parts, change clefs, transpose, etc.
A friend of mine, however, is a much-published composer who has written for film, TV, high school and college bands, jazz charts, etc. We got to talking about various notation software because he mentioned he was having a problem with Sibelius. I regaled him with the horrific problems I personally had with a completely legal copy of Sibelius when I got a new computer -- the code refused to believe it was legal thereafter.
I have been recommending he give LilyPond a try. But I've never used LilyPond at the high level he works in.
My question is this: are there many working professional composers and arrangers who rely on LilyPond as their first choice for notation software? I know there are a lot of amateurs like me -- but I'm wondering if there are pros out there who use LilyPond daily at a high level for multi-part scores, etc. My buddy was telling me how, when Jerry Goldsmith was recording with Sony, there'd be a table of four music majors from USC at work stations with Finale and/or Sibelius, ready to produce changes on the fly in parts and conductor scores, etc. Are there any Big Guns like this who rely on LilyPond?
