No, you just need to put the notes in a variable.

myMusic = { ... }

\score {
   \myMusic
   \layout{}
}

\score {
   \myMusic
   \midi{}
}

HTH,

I see. But then I need to copy the notes twice, one for the book with 
layout and for the book with the midi.

The \book blocks I suggested will not produce .pdf files.
They do not contain \layout sections.

To output the .pdf file you need a single additional \book block with 
\paper, \score and \layout sections (and no \midi section).

Thanks. I am aware of this method but this is not exactly what I want. I 
need to output one .pdf file, not many.


Is this possible?

Best,

I do something like that by setting up a \book block for each midi 
output file.  Each such block has a \score section and a \midi section 
and starts off with a \bookOutputName (or just a \bookOutputSuffix) 
declaration.
