To Jamie:
I'm trying to work with Lilypond too. It seems that what we're trying to do is 
almost impossible without lilypond-book 
(http://lilypond.org/doc/v2.10/Documentation/user/lilypond/LilyPond_002dbook#LilyPond_002dbook)
 which "wrap" your document preprocessing it and converting to graphics your 
lilypond examples before TeX compiling. But this is not implemented in LyX, you 
have to do it manually, and I can't help with this (I use some more wrappers so 
I think it simply won't work with me). If you still want to use normal lilypond 
examples, stay tuned, I'm trying find a solution. In the meantime, you can 
produce a output .png or small .pdf or .eps of the very first system of a .ly 
file with the "--preview" option 
(http://lilypond.org/doc/v2.10/Documentation/user/lilypond/Invoking-lilypond#Invoking-lilypond)
 (I think the "--no-page" option still doesn't work in the latest Lilypond 
version) and loading the resulting mylilypondfile.preview.png image in your 
text. Check 
http://lilypond.org/doc/v2.10/Documentation/user/lilypond/Extracting-fragments-of-notation#Extracting-fragments-of-notation
 for a tool to roughly clip your music.
Another solution is using musixTeX, but this is MUCH harder than Lilypond, and 
have to be considered twice before beginning using it.

write me if you have more technical questions (or help as well!).

you're welcome
Piero
p.s. I use windows XP
P.P.S. Use package harmony if you want to include just musical sybols such 
notes, very simple rhythms, tempo markings etc. directly IN your text without 
pentagram.
