Tempo music terminology

tempo music terminology refers to the speed in music, which determines the speed of music segments and can affect the performance difficulty and emotional expression of works.

in modern music, tempo means "beat every minute", which is the unit of speed. The speed of music is called speed. Speed is determined according to the content and style of music, which can be roughly divided into three categories: slow, medium and fast.

at the beginning, the speed of music is usually marked at the beginning of the score with text or numbers. Modern habits use BPM(beats per minute) as the unit of measurement. It refers to a specified note, such as the number of times a quarter note appears in one minute. The larger the number, the faster the speed, that is, the shorter the time it takes to beat. The files and interfaces of electronic digital music MIDI and other computer-related music serial programs usually use BPM to express speed.
