"I want to demonstrate a fast Tempo term in Italian and it's one of the most common fast tempo term that you may see. It's called, "Presto". And presto means very fast. The BPM range for that is about 168 to 200 beats per minute. So here is 168 in 4/4 time. Here is 200. Those are both in 4/4 time. So you can see there's a range. So anywhere between 168 to 200 beats per minute, if you see the term "Presto", you want to stay within that range."
