<h2 class="unnumberedsec">Applying note head styles depending on the step of the scale</h2>
<p>The <code>shapeNoteStyles</code> property can be used to define various note
head styles for each step of the scale (as set by the key signature or
the "tonic" property). This property requires a set of symbols, which
can be purely arbitrary (geometrical expressions such as
<code>triangle</code>, <code>cross</code>, and <code>xcircle</code> are allowed) or based
on old American engraving tradition (some latin note names are also
allowed).
</p>
<p>That said, to imitate old American song books, there are several
predefined note head styles available through shortcut commands such as
<code>\aikenHeads</code> or <code>\sacredHarpHeads</code>.
</p>
<p>This example shows different ways to obtain shape note heads, and
demonstrates the ability to transpose a melody without losing the
correspondence between harmonic functions and note head styles.
