thanks Carl, with some prodding I've now written my first lily scheme function
as below, seems to work fine, was surprised that I could just plonk in
\parenthesize as below.


harmonicPitch = #(define-music-function (parser location note)
                                     (ly:music?)
  #{
    \once \override Voice.Stem #'stencil = ##f
        \once \override Voice.NoteHead #'font-size = #-4
        \parenthesize
        $note
  #})
