Hi Urs,

What could be useful however (I don't know _anything_ about it) would
be to add a chapter to the documentation talking about how to get
high-quality audio output from/through LilyPond, referencing useful
free soundfonts or whatever is useful to get this to work.
I have been using Lilypond for over a decade now. I have never used it
to "compose" (only engrave), and only *once* have I used the MIDI
output for listening. However, I feel I will likely be needing this
functionality in the near future, and would be very interested in
seeing good documentation on how to get (or improve) high-quality
audio output from Lilypond.
Generating audio is one of the important reasons to use LilyPond.

I use Timidity++ on a Linux system with CrisisGM351 soundfont, and I
get very acceptable results. I must admit that I cannot remember where I
got this soundfont from, but AFAIK it's a free font.

Would you mind uploading an example somewhere?
