Detailed explanation-1: -In the context of music, tempo refers to how fast a piece of music is. Because of the term’s origins, different speeds are named after Italian words, such as allegro, allegretto, lento, largo, and andante. Another way to describe tempo is by indicating its BPM or beats per minute.
Detailed explanation-2: -Instrumental music with three kinds of tempo (fast tempo: >120 bpm, presto and allegro; medium tempo: 76–120 bpm, moderato and andante; and slow tempo: 60–76 bpm, adagio and larghetto) was selected by three music professors.
Detailed explanation-3: -Tempo means the speed at which a piece of music should be played. As with many other musical terms, Italian words are used to describe different tempos of music. Adagio-a slow tempo (other words for slow are lento and largo) Andante-performed at a walking pace. Moderato-played at a medium tempo.
Detailed explanation-4: -Allegretto – moderately fast (98–109 BPM) Allegro – fast, quickly and bright (109–132 BPM) Vivace – lively and fast (132–140 BPM) Presto – extremely fast (168–177 BPM)
Detailed explanation-5: -If no one is dancing at your party, you probably want to put on some music with a faster tempo-meaning a faster speed. The word tempo came into English by way of Italian, tracing all the way back to the Latin word tempus, meaning time.
