In 19th and 20th century French music (Frank, Debussy, Ravel, Stravinsky) one often comes across the mark "en dehors" - obviously meaning a certain way of singing or playing certain section of music. It appears together both with pp and ff, so its different from a simple dynamical mark..
I do know the literal french meaning: "outside" or "outward", and with the help of google I found that it is also a technical term in ballet dancing; but I found nothing in any music dictionary (at least those that I have access to).

Simply play this part in this section comparatively louder than the other parts. I guess you are in a polyphonic writing. For example, pianists play every occurence of a Fugue theme "en dehors". (what organists and harpischordists do would be off-topic :-)
Also noted like this by some musicians on their scores:
