If you meant the reoccuring of: 曲 it's the kanji for kyoku.
It has the meanings of music, melody and composition.
Hence it is pretty dominant in music terminology.

If you can't read the characters at all because they can't show up then probably do what Shiroi Koumori suggested.

You are welcome :) It's always nice to teach people about these things. Japanese is such a fun language.
