Re: What is the meaning of a mordent on top of a sharp sign?

[William Rehwinkel]

No problem Ken. Sorry about that, I made the following example: (note 
that this would not play in midi playback)

\version "2.22.2"

shMordentUp = \markup { \center-column {\musicglyph "scripts.mordent" 
\musicglyph "accidentals.sharp" }}
shMordentDo = \markup { \center-column {\musicglyph "accidentals.sharp" 
\musicglyph "scripts.mordent" }}

\score {
    \relative c'' {
        c4^\shMordentUp
        c4_\shMordentDo
    }
}

Also note this example from 
https://lilypond.org/doc/v2.22/Documentation/notation/expressive-marks-attached-to-notes

\relative c''' {
  \once \override TextScript.script-priority = #-100
  a2^\prall^\markup { \sharp }

  \once \override Script.script-priority = #-100
  a2^\prall^\markup { \sharp }
}

Thank you,

-William
