That sounded like it would be something I wanted to try, so I listed the
packages available and went to install it. But it said it depended on
emacs25. So I installed emacs-snapshot (which is emacs 25.1) from an
unofficial ubuntu repository, and listed the packages available and it
doesn't have midi-kbd.
Is it my emacs installation being inadequate, or is the package not
configured right?

I'm currently getting MIDI entry of lilypond into emacs via
midi-input-mode from <http://utopia.knoware.nl/~hlub/uck/software>. It
works but has the major disadvantage that it doesn't play the MIDI notes
as well as reading them. The minor disadvantage is that you have to
proofread carefully, because it's likely to decide that your F#'s are
Gb's, or worse, that your A's are G##'s.

With all these books, as with any on the subject, do not expect to
turn yourself into an expert via the printed word alone. You can
commit to memory everything Lichine has to say about Gevrey-Chambertin
