Are ther any 'false ends' in Classical Music like there are in mainstream music
Lots of rock / pop music often make you think the song has ended (sometimes even having a few seconds of silence) only to carry on for a few seconds / minute. Does any classical music do this?
Not exactly a false end as there's not really a big enough gap, but at the end of Orawa by Kilar, the madly-playing strings all come to a crescendo stop and, after a beat, all the musicians shout, "Hey!"
Took me completely by surprise when I first saw it performed (having never heard it before). Wonderful piece, absolutely bonkers.
Haydn did this often.

The end of Tchaikovsky 5 has a surprise coda.
I feel like Beethoven's Ode to Joy is like this.
