Decrescendo is another word for diminuendo

crescendo (cre-shen-do), a musical term meaning a gradual increase in sound, from soft to very lound.
A common example of something that gets louder without being a crescendo is the sound of an approaching train. As the train gets closer, its noise increases in volume due to the Doppler effect. Additionally, a crowd's chatter can intensify as more people join in, creating a rising level of noise without a formal crescendo structure.
Crescendo means getting louder.
It is short for diminuendo, which means gradually getting quieter. The opposite of this is crescendo (gradually getting louder, and it is sometimes written as cresc.)
A crescendo does not have a theme. A crescendo means that you must gradually get louder.
