That's exactly what I've done - I do a lot of my day job with Virtual Machines. But... ... I generally use Frescobaldi as an IDE for Lilypond work - and that works very much better in Windows (better integration with midi, pdf viewer as well as printers etc.), and there's available installers for the latest versions. Ubuntu's packaged version is ancient, and the one I built has all sorts of problems. That said, it is almost certainly the path of least resistance to fix Frescobaldi on Linux than fix Lilypond in Windows!! > I also used Sibelius - for my college course. I always now use LilyPond in preference. IMO, Lilypond produces somewhat better looking output (with at least a little care), and as a software engineer I really rate being able to source-control my files properly. Everything's in git...
