Are you getting parse errors from Lilypond, or from TeX?  When I try
Lilypond on the example above, I get the following results:

    [ridcully:~/tmp/lilypond]$ lilypond simple.ly 
    lilypond (GNU LilyPond) 2.2.6
    Running lilypond-bin...
    Now processing `simple.ly'
    Parsing...

    /Users/cobbe/tmp/lilypond/simple.ly:1:1: error: parse error:
    {
      c'4 e' g' }

    /Users/cobbe/tmp/lilypond/simple.ly:1:9: warning: Braces don't match:
    { c'4 e' 
             g' }
    Failed files: simple.ly 


    lilypond: error: LilyPond failed on input file simple (exit status 1)
    lilypond: warning: Running LilyPond failed. Rerun with --verbose for a 
trace.

If I understand the output correctly, this isn't ever getting to TeX.

Does the following Lilypond input work any better?

    \score {
        \notes { c'4 e' g' }
    }

This produces the expected output for me.

(Your mileage may vary; I'm using fink's teTeX, and I build all my fink
stuff from source rather than use the binaries.  I don't know if that
matters here.)

Hope this helps,

Richard
