Which marking means 'to the end'?

• A. A tempo
• B. Al fine
• C. Con
• D. Energico

Answer: (B)

When you’re following markings that tell you where to go in a piece, you’re dealing with navigation through endings and sections. The instruction that literally means “to the end” is al fine, which tells you to continue playing until you reach the end of the piece (or the point marked Fine).

Other markings here point to tempo or mood rather than a stopping point: A tempo directs you back to the original speed after a change, con is a helper word used with another term (like con brio) and isn’t a standalone endpoint, and energico indicates an energetic style rather than where to stop.
