Definition
Plural form of diminuendo; multiple passages or instances of gradually decreasing volume in music.
Etymology
From Italian 'diminuendo,' with '-es' added as a variant English plural suffix for words borrowed from Italian. Some prefer 'diminuendos' as a more anglicized plural, while 'diminuendoes' preserves the Italian form more closely.
Kelly Says
The fact that musicians can't agree whether it's 'diminuendos' or 'diminuendoes' shows the ongoing tug-of-war between Italian musical precision and English convenience—both spellings are technically correct!
