I use M-x customize, search for lilypond and then get the config panel
for org-babel-lilypond-commands.
Btw I've set up timidity, checked if it works correctly and then
change the value from vlc to timidity, but same result.

Aaah wait, I'm currently looking at ob-lilypond.el, and it's looking
for a file that ends with *.midi, but lilypond on Windows generates
*.mid files.
Ok I'll see if that's it after dinner.
