Here was my problem,   I did not know what i was expecting,   i searched for
\accidentalStyle dodecaphonic and came up wit the only wording: "A
predefined command such as
\dynamicUp or a music expression like \accidentalStyle dodecaphonic"
and 3 places where it was used that i did not understand.

Thank you, ƒg
