Thanks all for the generous feedback.
But the very simple solution that Jonas Olson posted quite early solved
the issue.
"for dir in [0-9]*/;" was is exactly what I needed.

find is looking _recursively_, arbitrarily deep. It is the wrong tool
for the job.

Apologies. My misunderstanding. I thought that recursion was the
desired behaviour. If not, then something more like this should do it:
for d in [0-9]*
do
if test -d $d
then
(
cd $d
for f in *.ly
do
lilypond $f
done
)
fi
done
Once again, I've typed this straight into the mail client without
testing, so the obvious risks are present.
All the best
Christopher W.
