The term CLOSING PASSAGE IN MUSIC is often referred to as a CODA, which is a four-letter word. A CODA is a passage of music that comes at the end of a piece or section of a piece and serves to bring it to a satisfactory conclusion. It is usually composed of a few bars of music and can be either a repetition of earlier material or a new musical idea. The CODA is often used to provide a sense of closure and resolution to the piece.
