Aha! So the trick is to use \markup.
I try to typeset the word "There's", with a decent apostrophe. This
would lead to
\markup {&qu
concatenating markups.
You mean something like:
\markup {
#(ly:export
(string-append
"Can" (ly:wide-char->utf-8 #x2019) "t"))
}
Thanks for the pointers.

Hurray! Thanks.

Hi,
According to the docs (10.1.4):
To use a Unicode escape sequence, use
#(ly:export (ly:wide-char->utf-8 #x2014))
Stupid question: How can I use this to get a particular unicode
character into a string (e.g. lyric)?
Thanks for any examples,
-- Jo

save your LilyPond file in utf-8 format and write
%
\relative c' { c d c e g c2. }
\addlyrics { There's a beau -- ti -- ful text }
