Hello Jan-Peter,

Thanks for the information. 

Exporting to MusicXML is difficult, also because there are things that need to 
be done in LP with Scheme code since there’s no ‘first class citizen’ to do the 
job.

This leads for example to the use of markup for things such as the swing tempo 
indication:

tempoRelationshipStaffReduce = #-3

tempoRelationship =
#(define-music-function (parser location label parenthesized musicI musicII)
   (string? boolean? ly:music? ly:music?)
   (let* (
           (left-paren (if parenthesized "(" ""))
           (right-paren (if parenthesized ")" ""))
           )
     #{
       \tempo \markup {
         \line \general-align #Y #DOWN {
           % 1st column in line
           $label

           % 2nd column in line

           $left-paren

           \score {
             \new Staff \with {
               % reduce the font size a la cue
               fontSize = #tempoRelationshipStaffReduce
               \override StaffSymbol.staff-space = #(magstep 
tempoRelationshipStaffReduce)
               % hide the staff lines
               \override StaffSymbol.line-count = #0
               % align horizontally
               \override VerticalAxisGroup.Y-extent = #'(-0.85 . 0)
             }

             {
               % \override Score.SpacingSpanner.common-shortest-duration = 
#(ly:make-moment 1/2) % super-tight
               % \override Score.SpacingSpanner.common-shortest-duration = 
#(ly:make-moment 1/4) % tight
               % \override Score.SpacingSpanner.common-shortest-duration = 
#(ly:make-moment 3/16) % even
               \override Score.SpacingSpanner.common-shortest-duration = 
#(ly:make-moment 5/32) % even

               % the left music
               \relative c' { \stemUp $musicI }

               % the equivalence sign
               \once \override Score.TextScript.Y-offset = #-0.4
               s4.^\markup{
                 \halign #-1 "="
               }

               % the right music
               \relative c' { \stemUp $musicII }
             }

             \layout {
               indent = 0
               \context {
                 \Staff
                 \remove "Clef_engraver"
                 \remove "Time_signature_engraver"
               }
             } % layout end
           } % score end

           $right-paren

         } % line end
       } % markup end
     #}))


    \tempoRelationship #"Swing" ##t
    \fixed b' {
      b8 [ b8 ] 
    }
    \fixed b' {
      \tuplet 3/2 { b4 b8 }
    }


while they can be described natively in MusicXML:

     <direction placement="above">
        <direction-type>
          <words>Swing</words>
        </direction-type>
        <direction-type>
          <metronome parentheses="yes" default-y="30" halign="left" 
relative-x="26">
            <metronome-note>
              <metronome-type>eighth</metronome-type>
              <metronome-beam number="1">begin</metronome-beam>
            </metronome-note>
            <metronome-note>
              <metronome-type>eighth</metronome-type>
              <metronome-beam number="1">end</metronome-beam>
            </metronome-note>
            <metronome-relation>equals</metronome-relation>
            <metronome-note>
              <metronome-type>quarter</metronome-type>
              <metronome-tuplet bracket="yes" show-number="actual" type="start">
                <actual-notes>3</actual-notes>
                <normal-notes>2</normal-notes>
                <normal-type>eighth</normal-type>
              </metronome-tuplet>
            </metronome-note>
            <metronome-note>
              <metronome-type>eighth</metronome-type>
              <metronome-tuplet type="stop">
                <actual-notes>3</actual-notes>
                <normal-notes>2</normal-notes>
                <normal-type>eighth</normal-type>
              </metronome-tuplet>
            </metronome-note>
          </metronome>
        </direction-type>
      </direction>

I’m not at ease enough currently with the Scheme/Lilypond interaction to be of 
any help, unfortunately.
