Have you tried \displayMusic?  =)

(make-music
  'SequentialMusic
  'elements
  (list (make-music
          'RelativeOctaveMusic
          'element
          (make-music
            'SequentialMusic
            'elements
            (list (make-music
                    'EventChord
                    'elements
                    (list (make-music
                            'NoteEvent
                            'duration
                            (ly:make-duration 0 0 1 1)
                            'pitch
                            (ly:make-pitch 0 0 0))
                          (make-music
                            'TextScriptEvent
                            'direction
                            1
                            'text
                            (markup #:line (#:finger "5-4"))))))))))

Good luck!
