Pitchless durations result in a NoteEvent without pitches.  Similarly
repeat chords result in an EventChord without note elements but a
duration.

Before doing further manipulations, you will generally want to do
something like
(expand-repeat-notes! (expand-repeat-chords! '(rhythmic-event) music))
on it for that reason if you make use of the respective shorthands.

Of course, one easy way not to forget anything is
(ly:score-music (scorify-music music parser))

The parser is needed since this will also expand quotes (which are
stored per-parser) and other stuff.
