D.S. al Coda = Dal Segno al Coda It means from the sign to the coda.
D.S. al coda means to repeat back to the sign and play to the coda sign. Upon reaching this symbol, skip to the coda. The coda sign shows where the coda starts.
I'm not sure about the exact rules, but I have an opinion as a performer. If a piece has a coda following the DC or DS it is nice to be reminded or warned again. Same rule of thumb with an "al fine" situation, it just helps clarify the "road map" for the piece of music being performed.
You mean cauda. It means the tail of an animal. And coda is Italian for tail.
In any music DC Al Fine means play through the end, and then repeat but only play to the Fine.

DC in music stands for Da Capo, which is Italian for "go back to the beginning".Often, DC is used along with DC al Fine, meaning Da Capo al Fine, which means go the the beginning and continue to the "fine", which is the ending.Constrast this with DS, meaning Da Segno, which means go back to the sign, or DS al Fine which means go back to the sign and continue to the ending.Sometimes, there is a coda, which is an alternate ending, somewhat like a secondary or tertiary repeat.
Dal segno al Fine is a musical term meaning Repeat from the sign. Then end at the word Fine. SO repeat from Coda
Usually you will see either "D.S. al Coda" or "D.S. al Fine." With the first case, go back to the Del Signo (it looks like an ornate S with a strike through it) and then play until the Coda. At that point, go to the Coda. In the second case, go back to the Del Signo and then play until the Fine. At that point, stop playing because the piece is over (lol).
(music) short for Da Capo al fine: repeat from beginning up to the word fine
