Perfectly what I've been looking for. Thanks a lot for the code as well as for the hint to the callback explanation, Jean!

The most obvious marking might be by coloring the note head (and stem). In the following MVE I'd like to highlight alle the c's and g's: \relative c' { c4 d e c e f g2 }That's a good job for a simple callback. |\version "2.24.1" \layout { \context { \Score \override NoteHead.color = #(lambda (grob) (let* ((pitch (ly:event-property (event-cause grob) 'pitch)) (semi (modulo (ly:pitch-semitones pitch) 12))) (cond ((eqv? semi 0) "red") ((eqv? semi 7) "blue") (else "black")))) } } \relative c' { c d e f g f e d c b a g fis g a b c1 } | There is a very similar example on https://extending-lilypond.gitlab.io/fr/extending/backend.html#understanding-callbacks HTH, Jean
