A Coda is also a music notation.
In
music notation, the
coda symbol, which resembles a set of crosshairs, is used as a navigation marker, similar to the
dal Segno sign. It is used where the exit from a repeated section is within that section rather than at the end. The instruction "To Coda" indicates that, upon reaching that point during the final repetition, the performer is to jump immediately to the separate section headed with the coda symbol. For example, this can be used to provide a special ending for the final verse of a song.
