Well, there are surely organizations out there (Creative Commons, Software Freedom Conservancy, ...) who can advise.
That said, as long as you secure the copyright holders' permission for use of the musical extracts, and you are explicit that the free license does not apply to those extracts, I don't see what grounds there would be for complaint.
I apologize for making an off-thread comment but, after reading so many posts about copyrights, I felt the need to say something that would be useful to generate some awareness about the problem that has been created around copyrights by greedy companies and corporations. I don't want this thread to become a discussion about copyrights. I hope it doesn't! I won't say another word about it here, I promise!
You're preaching to the converted here, I fear ... :-)
Now, about the tutorial for creating orchestral scores with Lilypond, I just want to tell everyone that I have started working on it. I still have to finish the music for the film first, then I have to finish the score (Icarus) and then I also have to prepare my classes for the next semester (I teach at a local university). So I'd say it's gonna take me at least a couple of months to finish the document (possibly three!). I'm writing it in LaTeX, as Urs suggested, and will send it to him so that it can be included in his project.
Will you be publicly sharing your drafts? I'm sure people would be happy to give feedback and contributions on the way.
