Hello David*2,
You may be interested in xml2ly 0.93, which I’m currently finalizing. The doc
is at https://github.com/grame-cncm/libmusicxml/tree/lilypond/doc
<https://github.com/grame-cncm/libmusicxml/tree/lilypond/doc>, in particular
https://github.com/grame-cncm/libmusicxml/blob/lilypond/doc/introductionToMusicxml/IntroductionToMusicXML.pdf,
which I presented at the recent conference in Salzburg.
All you need to build the most recent version is a C++-11 compiler and cmake.
If you send me a sample file, I’ll send you the resulting LilyPond file.
HTH!
JM
