Circular?  What do you mean?

Built in?  What exactly is the problem?  A quick search on google with

  musica.ttf debian

yields

  ttf-ancient-fonts

as a package name.

It's part of an openSuSE package.  Anyways, I suggest to use the Noto
font, which is actively maintained by google; again, a google search
for

  NotoSansSymbols-Regular.ttf debian

yields

  fonts-noto-unhinted 

as a Debian package name.  Note that I don't use Debian, so my quick
search results might not fit.

If you want the most recent version of the Noto font, download it from

  
https://github.com/googlei18n/noto-fonts/blob/master/unhinted/NotoSansSymbols-Regular.ttf

A specimen of the font is available at
