Well, this isn't a LaTeX environment, but it is a set of TeX macros for doing music typesetting. The origin and history of these macros is rather murkey (it seems they were part of a Masters project in Germany). In anycase, you can get MuTeX (or mtex) from cs.ubc.ca (128.189.97.5) /MuTeX (*slow*) stolaf.edu (130.71.128.1) /TeX/MuTeX MuTeX is basically the same as the orginal mtex package. The mtex package only has a short document (in german) explaining its use. The MuTeX package includes a lengthly LaTeX document (in english) along with information on how to fix several bugs. While some parts of the system are rather primitive, the two included demos are fantastic (even more so when you keep in mind that they came from TeX).
