Objects may be parenthesized by prefixing \parenthesize
to
the music event. When prefixed to a chord, it parenthesizes every
note. Individual notes inside a chord may also be parenthesized.
c2 \parenthesize d c2 \parenthesize <c e g> c2 <c \parenthesize e g>
Non-note objects may be parenthesized as well.
c2-\parenthesize -. d c2 \parenthesize r
