In musical terminology, tempo (Italian for time, plural: tempi) is the speed or pace of a given piece. It is a crucial element of composition, as it can affect the mood and difficulty of a piece.

The first two measures of Mozart's Sonata K. 331, which indicates the tempo as "Andante grazioso" and a modern editor's metronome marking: "♪ = 120".

Why is it important to have a good tempo?
Q. I hear my trainer saying to a girl I ride with all the time "establish a tempo" and I know what she means but why is it important? Thanks. EquineGurl: I wasn't talking about me not having a good tempo. I was talking about horses.

A. It just accommodates creating standards for how many strides of a given gait will occur within a given time frame. It allows for measuring stride length and suspension comparatively for different movements. If one gait should consist of 60 strides per minute, or one stride per second, and that tempo should be matched by another gait, it sets a standard for the rate of speed and number of strides it should take for each of those different gaits to get from point A to point B in one minute. If one horse is walking and another is trotting, and both move at 50 strides per minute, they will remain parallel as they move from point A to point B because they will move at the same rate of speed. To do that, the length and suspension of strides… [cont.]

Q. I was hit on the left rear panel and the hit shut off the gas to my 93 ford tempo, can you tell me how fast a person would have to be going to activate the switch?

A. Fords are pretty ticky in a lot of ways that might be relevant. If you have not changed out your fuel filter in the past six months, the hit might actually have just caused the fuel to stop flowing, which it CAN do if you've not changed out the filter ANY time you take a right-turn at speed. Sorry you got hit, best wishes.
