Wikipedia definition
1. Trope (music)A trope or tropus may be a variety of different things in medieval and modern music. The term trope derives from the Greek τρόπος (tropos), "a turn, a change" (Liddell and Scott 1889), related to the root of the verb τρέπειν (trepein), "to turn, to direct, to alter, to change" (Anon. 2009). The Latinised form of the word is tropus. In music, a trope is adding an additional section, or trope to a plainchant or section of plainchant, thus making it appropriate to a particular occasion or festival.
