musical notes

I meant just the symbols, not the staff.
I think your tip comes up to my wish.

If you just want a couple of dingbats to suggest music, you can use
characters U266A and U266B in the "Miscellaneous Dingbats" character subset
of, say, Times New Roman or Arial.

If you would spend a couple of minutes on Google for "free music note fonts"
you would find some, including:
