The correct answer is:

freestanding piece of music that is part of a larger work.

The correct answer is: a freestanding piece of music that is part of a larger work.

To find the answer, we need to understand what a movement is in the context of music. A movement refers to a self-contained section or piece of music within a larger composition, such as a symphony, concerto, or sonata. These compositions typically consist of multiple movements, each with its own unique character, tempo, and structure. Movements are usually separate entities but are connected to each other by thematic, tonal, or structural elements.

Therefore, the correct option is "a freestanding piece of music that is part of a larger work."
