An outro (sometimes "outtro", also "extro") is the conclusion or epilogue to a piece of music, work of literature, television program, or video game. It is the opposite of an intro. "Outro" is a blend or portmanteau as it replaces the element "in" of the "intro" with its opposite, to create a new word. The word was used facetiously by The Bonzo Dog Doo-Dah Band for the 1967 track "The Intro and the Outro".[citation needed]
The term is typically used only in the realm of pop music. It can refer to the concluding track of an album (such as Snoop Doggy Dogg's Tha Doggfather) or to an outro-solo, an instrumental solo (usually a guitar solo) played as the song fades out or until it stops. For outro-solo examples see Led Zeppelin's "Black Dog",[citation needed] Vanessa Carlton's "Home" (piano solo),[citation needed] Eric Clapton's "Layla" (piano, guitar and slide guitar solo composed with Jim Gordon),[citation needed] Pink Floyd' "Comfortably Numb",[citation needed] Eagles' "Hotel California",[citation needed] Metallica's "Fade to Black" and "Astronomy" (Blue Öyster Cult cover),[citation needed] Tenacious D's "The Metal",[citation needed] Guilherme Arantes' "Amanhã",[citation needed] Dire Straits' "Tunnel of Love",[citation needed] Rush's "Working Man",[citation needed] Blur's "To the End (La Comedie)",[citation needed] and T34's "Hbabi".[citation needed]
In contemporary television, an outro is theme music present over closing credits or played at the end of a program (common in news programs or game shows when the lights go down and the camera angle is wide).
In video games, the outro is the end sequence. The term usually refers to the cut scene presented to the player on completion of the game. Credits can be rolled at this time, including Editors, Story Developers, ect.
In music, the conclusion is the ending of a composition and may take the form of a coda or outro.
Pieces using sonata form typically use the recapitulation to conclude a piece, providing closure through the repetition of thematic material from the exposition in the tonic key. In all musical forms other techniques include "altogether unexpected digressions just as a work is drawing to its close, followed by a return...to a consequently more emphatic confirmation of the structural relations implied in the body of the work."
For example:
Outro is a 2002 album by Jair Oliveira. Jair’s second album blends jazz, samba, soul and MPB. Most of Outro's songs were co-written by fellow Brazilian singer and composer Ed Motta.
Bree may refer to:
Bree is a fictional village in J. R. R. Tolkien's Middle-earth, east of the Shire and south of Fornost Erain. It was inspired by the Buckinghamshire village of Brill, which Tolkien visited regularly in his early years at Oxford. (Supposedly Tolkien also lived in Brill for a short while). Bree was also inspired by Tolkien's passion for linguistic puns, as 'bre' is often a general Celtic word for "hill".
Bree was a very ancient settlement of men in Eriador, long established by the time of the Third Age of Middle-earth. After the collapse of the kingdom of Arthedain, Bree continued to thrive without any central authority or government for many centuries. As Bree lies at the meeting of two large roadways, the Great East Road and the (now disused) Greenway, it had for centuries been a centre of trade and a stopping place for travellers, though as Arnor in the north waned Bree's prosperity and size declined.
Tolkien wrote of two different origins for the people of Bree. One was that Bree had been founded and populated by men of the Edain who did not reach Beleriand in the First Age, remaining east of the mountains in Eriador. The other that they were stemming instead from the same stock as the Dunlendings. These two origins are not completely contradictory as the Dunlendings were descended from the Haladin who were counted the second house of the Edain.
