The following is a fundamental change in LilyPond’s music
representation: Rhythmic events like LyricEvent and NoteEvent are no
longer wrapped in EventChord unless they have been actually entered as
part of a chord in the input. If you manipulate music expressions in
Scheme, the new behavior may require changes in your code. Calling the
music function \eventChords or the Scheme function event-chord-wrap!
converts to the old representation; using one of those might be easiest
for keeping legacy code operative.
