U+1D0B4 "𝂴" Byzantine Musical Symbol Gorthmikon N Aploun is a notation mark used in Byzantine chant notation to indicate a specific melodic ornament or rhythmic nuance. This symbol represents a "simple" or "basic" form of the Gorthmikon neume, which typically guides the singer on how to perform a microtonal or expressive flourish in the chant. It belongs to the Byzantine Musical Symbols block, which encodes the ancient musical notation system used in the Eastern Orthodox Church and related liturgical traditions. The character is distinct from its complex or composite counterparts in the same system, serving as a fundamental building block for notating the highly ornate and melismatic Byzantine musical repertoire.
