LilyPond is the GNU Project music typesetter.  It has a simple input
language, but is not a preprocessor; Lily does all musical typesetting.

It generates visual or auditive output from a music definition file: 
it can typeset formatted sheet music to a TeX file and play (mechanical) 
performances to a MIDI file.  It includes a nice font of musical symbols.

You may take a look at the web page

or download it from

Enjoy
