Some fast googling found this:

http://icking-music-archive.org/software/musixtex/add-ons/readme-of.txt
http://icking-music-archive.org/software/musixtex/add-ons/old-feta.tar.gz

For just a few symbols using these fonts directly should do, but if
you want to typeset music you probably should be using lilypond.

Best wishes,
Taco
