Since "\stemUp" is shorthand for "\override Stem  #'direction = #UP",
you need to insert it _before_ the note you want to affect. Also, you
only need to include it once. It then applies to all following notes. If
you want to revert the setting, say "\stemNeutral". See also section
"6.3.2 Stems" in the manual.
