That sounds a lot like the Abjad software project.

And, welcome to the world of LilyPond!
Hi Garreth,
Absolutely - I highly recommend both:
https://www.python-course.eu/python_scores.php
and
Abjad - they are outstanding resources.
http://abjad.mbrsi.org/
Even though the first Python course link seems rather elementary with
its example that was chosen, the *potential *is massive - it's inspired
me to make quite a few pieces using this Python-centric approach. Great
for inspiration and seeing the bigger picture when it comes to putting
all the pieces of a score together.
Definitely check it out.
And Abjad, well....it's just mind-boggling awesome.
A real game changer.
Heck, I'm always finding new things it can do and it's so much fun to
work with. Very inspiring.
The learning curve can be quite a lot at first, but when it clicks...oh
it clicks. Wicked good stuff.
Good luck!
