What I provided was output from midi2ly from exactly the same midi file. I don't mind that much if I have to go through midi2ly -> (some manual editing) -> lilypond -> denemo -> (more manual editing) -> lilypond. But I guess I'll try to finish a crude the parser for lilypond notation and then do my own trickery with it, to suit the needs of the current problem at hand. (Or I might try a few more midi readers / interpreters / converters.)
