This removes some of the clutter, but not all. You’ve still got both the \mnn
function and the slurs applied to the notes. My goal is to eliminate the
clutter entirely and get the entry down to something like:

This has me thinking and I’ve come up with the attached to start. It attaches
the asterisk to the next syllable, but still needs work on the spacing.
Perhaps my brain just isn’t working at the moment, but how do I go about
tweaking the spacing from inside the aster function?
