Although you have a working solution, there's something strange.
Consider:
\version "2.27.2"
myExceptionMusic = {
<c e gis>-\markup \super { "5<" }
}
myException =
#(append
(sequential-music-to-chord-exceptions myExceptionMusic #t)
ignatzekExceptions)
\score {
\new ChordGrid \chordmode { c1:1.3.5+ }
\layout {
\context {
\Score
chordNameExceptions = \myException
}
}
}
\score {
\new ChordGrid \chordmode {
\set Score.chordNameExceptions = \myException
c1:1.3.5+
}
\layout { }
}
I've no clue why the outcome is different. (Image attached)
