CHAPTER

Coda

15

 
Short Answer
 

  1. at that moment where the music of the recapitulation stops corresponding to that of the exposition; this moment may not be associated with an initiating phrase function
  2. ascending stepwise
  3. a coda is a large-scale section on the same structural level as the preceding recapitulation; a codetta is a small unit, on the same structural level as a basic idea
  4. subordinate theme
  5. PAC (in the home key)
  6. lending a kind of circularity to the overall form
  7. because there is no natural place in the recapitulation to recall ideas from the development
