Do you mean that different pdfs will be produced?

Yes, in the end I found a way to do what I was thinking using tags and a
custom Makefile, but it is really cumbersome and I need to touch
multiple things every song added.

By the way, I see that you added some Scheme in your solution: which
parts of the manual should I read to learn what do they do?

Thanks!

P.S. I am happy there are other solution other than lilypond-book,
because to me it seems a very fragile solution (copying the doc and then
composing manually), especially if you are embedding music in a complex
LaTeX document. There is lyluatex with LuaLaTeX but I don't know if the
output is the same in terms of quality
