Hi Karen, You can record and play music easily enough, however even if you record your music as MIDI, it's not simple to transform it into Lilypond code. To the point that even though some utilities are available, I see comments that it's a lot of trouble to the point that it's easier to input manually. Denemo and Frescobaldi are two GUI applications that output Lilypond code. There are other notation languages for Linux, however the problems in converting MIDI files to a score will be similar. Running commands in Linux via ssh is the same as running them directly on a terminal. Once you know what commands/applications you want to run and with what arguments, making a script to do so is relatively simple.
