Could a few people proofread it?  In the near future the translation
teams will be working on it, so it would be good if we finalized node
names and caught any major mistakes.

The tutorial is great! Some minor comments:

2.1.1 second footnote: These easiest -> The easiest

2.1.1 Section MacOS X, 2nd par: lilypond -> LilyPond (all other uses
except the Unix command line have the two capital letters)

2.3.1 3rd paragraph: means that are -> means that they are

2.3.1 4th par: same time simple -> same time simply

2.3.1 5th par: maybe add "Also note that each note is relative to the
previous one in the input, and not relative to the c'' in the \relative
function."

2.3.1 6th par: exression -> expression

2.3.5 2nd par: angled -> angle

2.4.1 the lyrics are longer than the music, so there are no notes for
"free" in the 2nd example or "free __" in the 3rd

2.4.2 the last example contains a comment for yourself (-gp); also you
use \relative without a pitch here for the first time, which should be
explained (or changed to use a pitch)

2.5.4 2nd par: Identifiers -> With identifiers

2.5.4 4th par: should have -> must have (or are non-alphabetic
characters allowed?)
