Musical Note symbol in subtitles?

I've seen Hard of Hearing subtitles which include musical notes to signify that music in being played, along with a description of the music.

Is it possible to type a musical note symbol directly into DVDSP's subtitle track?

Get a font that used for musical notation such as Adobe's Sonata. You'll be able to directly type in any musical gliph you want

I've found some Musical Note symbols in Apple's own 'Symbols' font, but I can't find any way of actually using them - when I select this font in DVD Studio Pro's 'Show Fonts', all I'm getting is normal plain text.

I've been fiddling around with this for some time now, and I've also lost myt original fonts tool in DVD Studio Pro - I now have just a drop down fonts display and vcan't get the original 'Show Fonts' window back.
