Neither are called lilypond.  It's not particularly great, but there are
examples for the sharing of command and environment.  Basically you
check whether @currenvir is set to LilyPond.  As long as you don't
_nest_ those constructs...

Basically:

\newenvironment{lilypond}
{...}
{...}

\newcommand{\lilypondcommand}{...}

address@hidden
address@hidden
  address@hidden@currenv address@hidden
  \else \expandafter \lilypondcommand \fi}

Ugly, sure.  But I think LilyPond upstream would be sympathetic to
making command and environment named differently in the long run.
