FEMUSINDO.com - Tempo is a measure of the speed or speed of a song when played. Tempo is one of the important elements in music and must be taken into account in the process of composing music.
Tempo can make music beautiful or sound messy. In classical music, tempo is often described using words, usually in Italian.
According to its meaning, tempo is a measure of the speed in a song's rhythm, usually measured with a tool called a metronome and a special tool called a keyboard.
Especially in keyboard instruments, there will be a digital metronome that functions as a speed meter in a rhythm.
Usually, on a sheet of music notes, tempo will be written in beats per minute. If in English, the tempo is written in bpm or beats per minute.
The length of the beat is indicated by the time signature, for example in four quarters the beat will be worth a quarter note.
One example of tempo is in pop songs which usually have a tempo of 64-80 or 100-120 beats per minute, while march songs have a tempo of around 140-160 beats per minute.
