"We're here talking again about tempo again and this time I'd like to talk about the tempo that is put on the page for the music. Where you will look at the beginning of the music to find you find your tempo marking, is just above. If you look here at this, we've got here our clef again, our time signature and our notes. But if you look just above, right below the title, we now have the allegro. Okay? Allegro is one of the markings that is used for tempo, which tells me that this in itself, allegro means somewhat fast, is a general way to put it, that it's not going to be something that is going to be played very slowly. If you look at the next one down, moderato, is also another tempo marking. This one is going to be more of a medium or a moderate tempo, as the translation is. There are many, many others, such as, andante, there are so many that it's hard to name them all right now. But the best thing that you could do is, go to a music store, again, and to buy a music dictionary so that you can be able to translate and learn the words as you look at them on your music."
