http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sentence_(music)
"Sentence (music)
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Jump to: navigation, search
In music a sentence is "the smallest period in a musical composition that can give in any sense the impression of a complete statement." It "may be defined as a period containing two or more phrases, and most frequently ending with some form of perfect cadence." (Macpherson n.d.: 25)

Some theorists consider a sentence to be a musical form distinct from a period. It consists of a presentation phrase (a repeated motive) followed by a continuation phrase which ends in either a half cadence or an authentic cadence."

Also"PHRASE"
pls see the definition in :

http://www.classicalworks.com/html/glossary.html

"Phrase - A single line of music played or sung. A musical sentence".

So my suggestions: Musical Sentence/Phrase
Peer comment(s):

agree Fuad Yahya : It is hard to tell which term fits best (period, sentence, or phrase) without actual context (not just verbal context, but musical context) because these terms are fluid, with broad overlap.

Yes, Thanks a lot..but this definition would help in determining, of course that is up to the asker & her context:"Phrase - A single line of music played or sung. A musical sentence"
