+@subsection Using Scheme code instead of @code{\tweak}
+
+The main disadvantage of @code{\tweak} is its syntactical
+inflexibility. For example, the following produces a syntax error.
+
+@example
+F = \tweak #'font-size #-3 -\flageolet
+
+\relative c'' @{
+ c4^\F c4_\F
+@}
+@end example
+
+@noindent
+With other words, @code{\tweak} doesn't behave like an articulation
+regarding the syntax; in particular, it can't be attached with
+@samp{^} and @samp{_}.
+
+Using Scheme, this problem can be circumvented. The route to the
+result is given in @ref{Adding articulation to notes (example)},
+especially how to use @code{\displayMusic} as a helping guide.
+
+@example
+F = #(let ((m (make-music 'ArticulationEvent
+ 'articulation-type "flageolet")))
+ (set! (ly:music-property m 'tweaks)
+ (acons 'font-size -3
+ (ly:music-property m 'tweaks)))
+ m)
+
+\relative c'' @{
+ c4^\F c4_\F
+@}
+@end example
+
+@noindent
+Here, the @code{tweaks} properties of the flageolet object
+@samp{m} (created with @code{make-music}) are extracted with
+@code{ly:music-property}, a new key-value pair to change the
+font size is prepended to the property list with the
+@code{acons} Scheme function, and the result is finally
+written back with @code{set!}. The last element of the
+@code{let} block is the return value, @samp{m} itself.
