E. Discussion and Analysis.

Tempo –

moderate, and fast.
Just like how we sung the UCU

Tempo is the speed of the song. It can be

slow, moderate and fast.
Very Good!

For better understanding we have

also here the three general
components tempo markings.

1. Slow –
Sir, ('Broad', 'wide', 'slow'),An
(give examples) instruction meaning the music is
usually slow in speed, or broad in
tempo.

2. Moderate-
Sir, Not too fast and not too slow.
(give examples)

3. Fast- Sir, Allegro - A direction to play

lively and fast.
(give examples)

4. Metronome-

Sir, from ancient Greek word

(métron, "measure") and (némo, "I
manage", "I lead"), is a device that
produces an audible click or other
sound at a regular interval that can
be set by the user, typically in
beats per minute (BPM).
Musicians use the device to
practice playing to a regular pulse.
 Measuring in tempo marking

• Slower bpm- 25 to 76 Sir, it’s all about tempo.

• Moderato bpm- 77 to 120 the rate of speed of a musical piece or
• Fast bpm- 121 to 200 and above passage indicated by one of a series of
directions (such as largo, presto, or
allegro) and often by an exact metronome
marking
