Colossale

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The musical term colossale [kolosˈsaːle] indicates that the performer is to play the so marked passage in a fashion that suggests immensity. An example of this rare expression can be found at the climax of the huge cadenza in the first movement of Prokofiev's Second Piano Concerto in combination with the dynamic instruction fff.
