I'm surprised this targets TeX rather than lilypond, which AFAIK is the gold standard for free (as in beer and speech) music engraving. I checked, and lilypond also offers features for Gregorian chant notation [1]. Has anyone used both and is able to compare?

Good question, they considered it at some point: > Lilypond is a very good tool, but the part on Gregorian chant is not maintained and very deep modifications would be needed to perfectly align the notes and text.
