What is a "fermata"?
A fermata is a musical symbol that indicates a note or rest should be held for longer than its usual duration. It is represented by a dot with a curved line over or under it. The exact length of the hold is generally left to the performer or conductor's discretion, allowing them to stretch the note or rest as needed to add expression and emphasis in the music.
