... Except that it's not a SMuFL version.

TBH, I'm not a big fan of it. It's a bit too crisp and clean!

I agree it is too clean and sharp
and also am still looking for a SMUFL converter script for fontforge trying to rebuild my own font to SMUFL

I wonder if nobody ever made a glyphtable mapping Lilypond => SMuFL ?

Not even every font for Finale followed the Maestro mapping, so I doubt there's much demand for such a script.
It doesn't take long to copy all the symbols over -- but there's plenty more to be done after that!

This font, curiously enough, reminds me a lot of the japan house publishers which provide those "stock compliations" shipped with keyboards and some such. Here's an example: https://truongnhac.edu.vn/wp-content/up ... saishi.pdf

There's a compactness and simplicity in it which is refreshing, though I generally prefer the bolder look of traditional scores.

The font looks like a bunch of glyphs from various fonts slightly edited. I can't grasp how all of it goes together. Maybe is good for some educational purpose.
