Match Italian tempo words to real beats per minute. Classical scores rarely give an exact number, they use terms like grave, adagio, andante, moderato, allegro and presto to describe how fast to play. This reference lists each marking with a typical BPM range so you can set a metronome to the right ballpark. Type in a tempo and the tool also names the marking that best fits that speed, which is handy when you have a number from a DAW and want the musical term for a chart. Remember these ranges overlap and are a guide rather than a rule, since tempo also depends on the character of the piece and the performer. Use the list to learn the vocabulary, translate a marking into a click, or describe your own track in traditional terms.
