grace note , n :
(music) A musical note, indicated on a score in smaller type with or without a slash through it, played to ornament the melody rather than as part of it. Its note value does not count as part of the total time value of the measure it appears in. (figuratively) Something that decorates, embellishes, or ornaments; a finishing touch. For some Christian churches, today is the feast day of Saint Cecilia, the patron saint of musicians.
