I did the same (exept that I created a neu subdirectory
site-lisp\lilypond\).

I appended the following to my ~/.emacs:

(autoload 'LilyPond-mode "lilypond-mode")
(setq auto-mode-alist
      (cons '("\\.ly$" . LilyPond-mode) auto-mode-alist))

(add-hook 'LilyPond-mode-hook (lambda () (turn-on-font-lock)))

If I open a .ly-file or create a new one, the emacs switches into the
Lilypond mode (witch I can turn off with <Mx LilyPond-mode>.

Hope that helps.

(I can't switch the pdf-viewer to SumatraPDF -- but that's an other
problem.)
