Well, if you don't mention the MIDI file somewhere else in the
Makefile, the `%.midi: %.ly' rule never gets executed -- it is the
`%.pdf: %.ly' part which creates both PDF and MIDI output (and which
subsequently gets renamed afterwards).

For testing purposes, you might try to add

  foo: $(piece)I.mid

to the make file, retaining the incorrect rule.  Now saying

  make foo

won't work at all.
