Tension (music)
From Wikipedia
In music, tension is the perceived need for relaxation or release created by a listener's expectations. For example, dissonance may give way to consonance. Tension may also be produced through reiteration or gradual motion to a higher pitch (DeLone, et al. 1975, p.290).
