RfV as a Latin term. I can only find evidence for this term in English. If it's Latin, then it's later Ecclesiastical Latin. --EncycloPetey 18:57, 16 April 2009 (UTC)
- I found it in several musical dictionaries indicated as being a Latin term, and in the titles of a few compositions with enough context to make me think the whole title is Latin, though I'm not certain.
- Intrada, elegia e postludium, by Sławomir Stanisław Czarnecki
- Praeludium et postludium super hymnum austriacum Josephi Haydn pro organo aut Fortepiano quatuor manibus (Secondo= "Ped." c. octava) composuit Antonius Foerster.- Op. 105

- Postludium 'In dulci jubilo' , Leo Salerby
- plus quite a few others.
- Conversely, the Catalan cognate postludi is given in the GDLC as being formed by analogy to praeludium 'preludi' and interludium 'interludi', so definitely New Latin if it is Latin. — Carolina wren discussió 00:28, 17 April 2009 (UTC)
- Not all of those are Latin; the first item is actually Italian. However, based on the other findings it holds up as muscial jargon in New Latin. --EncycloPetey 18:30, 17 April 2009 (UTC)
