This worked perfectly---thank you! >> 2. Since "org-babel-lilypond-tangle" is less convenient to type than >> "ly-tangle" I think I should bind a key to it.

I added a header of ":tangle yes" to every code block, and then I get "Tangled 3 code blocks" but I don't get the output of MIDI playback and PDF update that I'm accustomed to. Invoking "M-x org-babel-lilypond-tangle" still produces that. Is there a way to get that behavior from "C-c C-v t"? Thank you for your help! Best, steven
