U+1D1AC "𝆬" Musical Symbol Combining Harmonic Unicode Character

U+1D1AC "𝆬" Musical Symbol Combining Harmonic is a notation mark within the Musical Symbols block, designed to appear above or below a note to indicate that it should be played as a harmonic, typically on stringed instruments. This combining character is placed in direct relation to a musical note to modify its performance, signaling to the musician to lightly touch the string at a specific nodal point to produce a higher, flute-like overtone. Its inclusion in the Unicode standard ensures that this precise instruction can be rendered in digital sheet music and text.[citation needed]
