Music21, does not really work to terribly well with Lilypond.
apparently there is a method of using Lilypond to generate output, but
it only reads musicxml and Lilypond currently cannot export to
musicxml. You can sidestep the issue partially and run midi files
through music21 but it reduces the usefulness since you lose a number
of things that might want to be examined.
But on the bright side I managed to get Music21 working under ubuntu
studio 13.10.
