Dear Hillary,
I think I could solve Your problem, but it was a bit intricate.
Maybee there is a more easy solution available.

\version "2.12.2"

\score {
  \relative c'' {
    \clef treble
     \override TextScript  #'extra-offset = #'(-1.3 . 4.5)
    \teeny  ces -\markup { \musicglyph #"accidentals.leftparen"  }
    s32  -\markup { \musicglyph #"accidentals.rightparen"  } c4*7/8
  }
}

Many thanks to the people who explained how to set the size of
> parentheses independently of the notes within them. Alas, this brings
> new problems, illustrated by this code snippet.
