Narratives have climaxes. So do their musical scores. In the case of Climactic Music, the music's climax coincides with and characterizes the narrative's. The swelling, booming music will help add tension or triumph to the scene. It may well be a Triumphant Reprise of an earlier piece from the work, and in musicals, it may be a Show Stopper and/or a Massive Multiplayer Ensemble Number. If the music is a song, with lyrics, the words may express the work's theme. In some cases, usually in musicals, characters will actually perform the climactic music. Examples
