Coda /ˈkōdə/ Derived from the from the Latin word cauda (meaning tail), coda is a passage at the end of a piece of music that brings the music to a close. Charles Burkhart, an American musicologist, poetically states that a coda is often created by "working an idea through to its structural conclusions" and that, after all this momentum is created, a coda is required to "look back" on the main body, allow listeners to "take it all in", and "create a sense of balance."
