Vim + lilypond = ?

[Eyolf Ostrem]

The best editor environment for lilypond-files of the ones I've come across so 
far (no offense, jEdit... :-), is emacs with the lilypond-quick-insert-mode, 
customized and tweaked to my liking and with interaction with mymidikbd: I 
can "touch-type" gkalsdasndofh and out comes r4 c8 d e c d8. e16 f1 - with 
sounding output for immediate control.
Only problem: I don't like emacs. 
Question, then: is there a way to accomplish the same in vim...? I'm mainly 
thinking of two things:
 - has anyone done the work of fitting the same kind of macros in vim? (i.e.: 
any rhythmic value is stored in memory and applies by default to the next 
input; keys mappable to pitches, lengths, extras such as octave up/down, 
dots, etc.; spaces are added automatically; etc.). I imagine this part would 
be fairly easy: the mappings are the easy part, and I suppose the rest can be 
arranged, somehow.
 - direct midi playback. This for me is the dealbreaker. Not that it sounds 
good or anything... but it speeds up input tremendously. so I guess the 
question boils down to this: does anyone know how I can integrate mymidikbd 
or some other midi app in a vim session?
