The task is not to put a chord INTO a variable, but
to get it FROM a variable. \chordmode's argument
should be a variable (as in my example), and
\chordmode should generate its output, a chord,
from this variable.

Ok, that sounds reasonable. I tested that with:
\chordmode { \notemode { c } }
which gives the same result as
v = { c }
\chordmode { \v }

Then I must ask the other way:
Why is the c in the chord one octave higher?
I.e., why is the c in \chordmode { c } interpreted as c'?

Is there such a thing as forcing a mode change when READING the variable?
Or is there another function that builds a chord on a
note stored in a variable?
