Thank you all for your answers and warnings. Indeed that was simple. That's 
enough for my present purposes, even if I have to write two times the titles 
(that was a minor nag).

This week-end I had settled on having a plain .tex file, and including the 
PDF for each song (generated from separate .ly files). The package pdfpages 
does it this way:

\includepdf[pages={-},addtotoc={1,section,1,Artist - Song,somelabel}]{file}

It's a bit more cumbersome (and still requires to duplicate the info). I'm 
too newbie to know, but maybe there are cases with reasons to go fully LaTeX 
and then this way would work (not that this is specific to lilypond, 
anyway).

BTW, lilypond-book barfed on my .lytex when including my .ly (which compiled 
fine with lilypond), but not when using inline snippets. I guess that is 
necessarily a bug in lilypond-book?

Cheers,
Álex.
