The trick is to typeset them scripts. Try
c^#'(music "accidentals--1")
To save some typing, you could add definitions like the
following ones at the top of your file
#(define flat '(music "accidentals--1"))
#(define natural '(music "accidentals-0"))
#(define sharp '(music "accidentals-1"))
#(define cautionarysharp '(columns (music "accidentals-leftparen")
(music "accidentals-1") (music "accidentals-rightparen")))
#(define smallsharp '((font-relative-size . -2) (music "accidentals-1")))
and use them as in the following example:
d^#flat e^#cautionarysharp f^#smallsharp
