This is my file that defines assorted dynamic markups (it's an old 
lilypond version so I'm sure it can be improved ...

% This contains assorted dynamics functions ...

% dynamic setting - "p - ff"
pthenff = _\markup{ \dynamic p \italic "-" \dynamic ff }

% dynamic setting - "f - p"
fthenp = _\markup{ \dynamic f \italic "-" \dynamic p }

mfthenff = _\markup{ \dynamic mf \italic "-" \dynamic ff }

% this is the correct way to do it ...
sfzp = #(make-dynamic-script "sfzp")
piu-f = #(make-dynamic-script #{ \markup { \normal-text \italic piu f } #})

fzp = _\markup{ \dynamic fzp }
% forzando - piano
ffzp = _\markup{
        \dynamic ffzp
}

% sforzandi
sffz = _\markup{ \dynamic sffz }
sfffz = _\markup{ \dynamic sfffz }



moltoff = _\markup{
  \bold \italic molto \dynamic ff
}

piuf = _\markup{
  \bold \italic piu \dynamic f
}
