Problem with Coda
I'm trying to write the score for a carol with 4 verses. The first 3 verses are followed by a symphony, the last verse by a coda.
I've put a 'DC al Coda' at the end of the symphony, a 'To coda' at the end of the verse and a 'Coda' at the start of the coda, but it insists on playing the symphony every time.
What am I doing wrong? My musical knowledge is not very strong...

Sorry, that's because I tried something else after that and must have saved that . Here's the original.

How about this?

That works for sure. It all makes more sense when you can see it written correctly.
Is there a way to make Musescore play 4 verses and do the Coda after the last? At the moment, it plays 3 verses. It's not that important, but I'm curious.
Thanks for your help.

Thanks for the help, all sorted. Would have been a tortuous and slow path to do that on my own with no guarantee of not giving up!
