COMP Meaning and
Definition
-
Comp is a colloquial abbreviation for the word "composition," which refers to a piece of music, literature, or any creative work that has been created or arranged by an individual or a group. It commonly implies a musical composition, but can also extend to other artistic forms.
In the context of music, a comp can refer to an improvisational technique used by instrumentalists, particularly jazz musicians, where they provide accompanying chords and rhythms for the soloist or melody line. The term "comping" originated from "accompanying" and has become synonymous with this specific style of musical accompaniment. It involves spontaneously creating harmonies, rhythmic patterns, and chord progressions to enhance the overall sound and dynamics of the performance.
Outside of music, the term comp can also signify a subsidized arrangement, an act of providing something complimentary, or a complimentary item or service offered to customers or clients. Such comp may be offered by hotels, casinos, restaurants, or other establishments as a promotional or goodwill gesture. For example, a hotel may comp a room night to compensate for an inconvenience or provide a complimentary meal at a restaurant as a gesture of appreciation. This usage also extends to the field of gambling, where casinos can offer complimentary services like meals, accommodations, or show tickets to high-rolling or loyal customers as a way of incentivizing their continued patronage.
