𝄀
U+1D100 "𝄀" Musical Symbol Single Barline is a code point in the Musical Symbols block that represents the vertical line used in standard musical notation to separate measures of a composition. It functions as a fundamental separator within a staff, indicating the end of one measure and the beginning of the next, without implying any rhythmic break or change in tempo. This symbol is distinct from other barlines like double barlines or final barlines, which convey structural closures or repeats. By encoding this glyph, Unicode enables the digital representation of Western sheet music, allowing software to render and process musical scores accurately for display, editing, or playback.
