Anything you write in the header fields is sent directly to
LaTeX which formats the titling. So, this is really a LaTeX
question, not a LilyPond question.
In ordinary LaTeX, the solution is to "escape" the & with a
backslash: \&
However, in the LilyPond input, you have to escape the backslash
once
Hi list !
I try to have the piece
\header { piece="Les Galans & les Dames"}
printed. But Lilly seems to be annoyed by the symbol &. How can make Lily print it
like I want ?

Perhaps you can try a \\& instead of & (as \& in TeX)?
(Sorry, I'm not at home, I can't try it.)

Hi Jean-Marc,
The problem you face here, is due to the fact that lily doesn't print the
text, but let's LaTeX do the printing. The '&' symbol is a reserved symbol,
which means that it has a special function in LaTex. To get the '&' symbol
printed one has to place a \ right before the '&' symbol.
