So I'm pretty new to music, not really being into it growing up so I'm having some trouble understanding things that people are talking about. I keep seeing things like listen for the tension and release in music, and I'm not sure what that means. Like at the end of songs I almost always think that there is going to be another note or there is still tension. One good example is the end of the 1812 overture. I swear that there should be one more note a little lower. Am I listening to things wrong or do I just need some more practice/exposure. Thanks for the help, sorry if it's a bit confusing.
