𝆲
U+1D1B2 "𝆲" Musical Symbol Glissando Down is a graphic notation element used in musical scores to indicate a rapid, continuous slide from a higher pitch to a lower pitch, typically across a series of notes without distinct articulation. It is part of the Musical Symbols block, specifically designed for use in modern and classical sheet music to convey a descending glissando effect, often resembling a wavy or straight line with a downward arrow or hook. This symbol helps performers interpret the composer's intent for a smooth, fluid transition between pitches rather than discrete, separated tones.
