Greetings, Paul,
In my .emacs file, I have the following lines:
(add-to-list 'load-path "/usr/share/emacs/site-lisp/")
(autoload 'LilyPond-mode "lilypond-mode")
(setq auto-mode-alist
(cons '("\\.ly$" . LilyPond-mode) auto-mode-alist))
(add-hook 'LilyPond-mode-hook (lambda () (turn-on-font-lock)))
(put 'narrow-to-region 'disabled nil)
The first line reflects where lilypond's emacs-mode files were located on
my system. Yours may be somewhere else. I hope this helps.
