In my experience (on OSX 10.9.5 and Mojave), you can’t install Lilypond and Frescobaldi with HomeBrew, but quite easily with MacPorts (lilypond-devel and frescobaldi-devel). For other applications HomeBrew might be better. In principle these systems shouldn’t interfere with each other… (Worked for me while I didn’t try to compile other software against libraries installed with one of those.)
