LilyPond is probably fairly different from most other programs you have experienced before and it's definitely one where you have to read at least the tutorial before you can do anything useful at all.
Agreed. Is learning Scheme a subtle requirement? Meaning that to really understand what going on, learn Scheme. If so, any recommended reading?
I wouldn't say it's necessary. You'll get very far by looking at the examples in the documentation and in the "Tips and Tricks" and "Regression Test" documents. If you need to do something more intricate, there are several people on this mailing list that can assist.
Is there any other documentation other than the tutorial and user guide? I.e., printed book? I use GNU Emacs on Windows, and haven't yet tackled elisp, but is Scheme and elisp similar?
See above. Scheme and elisp are both different dialects of LISP, so there are some similarities.
