𜽐
U+1CF50 "𜽐" Znamenny Neume Kryuk is a symbolic notation used in Znamenny Chant, a traditional liturgical singing system of the Russian Orthodox Church. This specific neume, known as the Kryuk (which literally means "hook" in Russian), represents a fundamental melodic gesture that guides singers through a series of pitches, typically moving upward or maintaining a stable note. Its visual form resembles a hook or curve, and it belongs to a larger corpus of neumes that were developed to record the intricate, monophonic melodies of sacred Slavic music without using standard Western staff notation.
