In music, a coda (Italian for “tail”, plural code) is a passage that brings a piece (or a movement) to an end. Technically, it is an expanded cadence (a melodic or harmonic configuration that creates a sense of resolution.) Coda is a performance in trajectory that develops within collaborative actions to bring together a mass of collective energy. Each element guides the audience in a narrative that focuses on the concept of constriction as an active force to activate a cathartic release — A conjuration of defence that confronts the oppressive the forces linked to the space in which they manifest.
