See: http://lilypond.org/doc/v2.18/Documentation/notation/text-markup-commands.html If one of the Feta glyph is needed, you can do (e.g.): \markup {\musicglyph #"scripts.segno" } See: http://lilypond.org/doc/v2.18/Documentation/notation/the-feta-font If you want a custom glyph, see: http://lilypond.org/doc/v2.18/Documentation/notation/graphic Ex.: \version "2.19.82" \layout { \context { \Staff \omit Clef \omit TimeSignature } } { s2^\markup { \combine \draw-circle #.8 #.2 ##f \translate #'(-.75 . -.75) \override #'(thickness . 2) \draw-line #'(1.5 . 1.5) } s^\markup\concat\vcenter { \teeny\flat "7" } \bar "" } HTH, Cheers, Pierre
