+@subsection Shaped note heads
+
+In shaped note head notation, the shape of the note head corresponds
+to the harmonic function of a note in the scale. This notation was
+popular in the 19th century American song books.
+
+Shaped note heads can be produced by setting @code{\aikenHeads} or
+@code{\sacredHarpHeads}, depending on the style desired.
+
+@lilypond[verbatim,relative=1,fragment]
+ \aikenHeads
+ c8 d4 e8 a2 g1
+ \sacredHarpHeads
+ c8 d4. e8 a2 g1
+@end lilypond
+
+Shapes are determined on the step in the scale, where the base of the
+scale is determined by the @code{\key} command
+
+@findex \key
+@findex shapeNoteStyles
+@findex \aikenHeads
+@findex \sacredHarpHeads
+
+Shaped note heads are implemented through the @code{shapeNoteStyles}
+property. Its value is a vector of symbols. The k-th element indicates
+the style to use for the k-th step of the scale. Arbitrary
+combinations are possible, eg.,
+
+
+@lilypond[verbatim,relative=1,fragment]
+ \set shapeNoteStyles = ##(cross triangle fa #f mensural xcircle diamond)
+ c8 d4. e8 a2 g1
