<P> Many songs in rock and other genres of popular music have sections identifiable as codas . A coda in these genres is sometimes referred to as an "outro", while in jazz, modern church music and barbershop arranging it is commonly called a "tag". </P> <P> 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 . </P> <P> The coda sign is encoded in the Musical Symbols block of Unicode as U + 1D10C MUSICAL SYMBOL CODA: 𝄌 </P>
