Grace Note

Description:

A grace note refers to a musical notation used to embellish a melody by introducing a quick, non-essential note. It is typically played very quickly and adds ornamentation to the main melody.

In a broader sense, grace note can also represent an additional element or detail that is added to enhance or beautify something, such as in a piece of writing or a visual composition.

Sample sentences:

1. He played the piano piece with an impressive flurry of grace notes.
2. The author skillfully added a grace note of humor to the otherwise serious novel.
