METRON
OME
6. The metronome was
developed by the German
inventor Johann Maelzel in
1816 (though it was invented
two years earlier by Dietrich
Winkel).
TRIVIA
10. Accelerando- gradually increasing in tempo.
Ritardando- is an indication to gradually
decrease the tempo of the music.
What is it called when a
song
change tempo?
11. Music with a fast tempo has been found to evoke
positive emotions, such as happiness, excitement,
delight, and liveliness, while music with a slow
tempo evokes negative emotions, such as
sadness, depression, and gravity (Peretz et al.,
1998; Balkwill and Thompson, 1999; Juslin and
Sloboda, 2001).

Notas do Editor
Tempo: is the speed of a song.
Largo: is slow speed
Andante: is walking
Allegro: is fast
Beats Per Minute
An important aspect to know about when it comes to tempo, is the beats per minute. Each tempo tells you how approximately how many beats per minute the song should be played. In other words, a tempo measures the beats per minute.
A slower tempo has less beats per minute. A faster tempo has more beats per minute.
Each second of a minute is like a beat. Thus, 60 beats per minute would be the same timing as a ticking clock. If you have no other resource around, a ticking clock is a great way to figure out your beats per minute!
A typical walking speed is a little faster than a second. So anything above 60 bpm is going to be either a walking speed or faster. Anything below 60 bpm, or a second, would be a really slow walk — more like a grandpa shuffle. A run is about 120 bpm or higher.
It is helpful to me as I sit down and see a tempo written at the beginning of my music, to begin counting out loud the beats per minute, or the tempo, so I know what how fast or slow to play the song.
You measure a beat depending on the time signature. For 4/4 time signatures, a quarter note gets on beat. Thus, 60 bpm would be 60 quarter notes per minute.
A metronome can be set to the amount of beats per minute that you would like. The metronome will then tick at the bpm set. You can then play a song to the beat of the metronome. You will find that this may not be easy! It definitely takes practice and perserverance to master playing with a metronome, but it is highly recommended. The metronome will help you to keep the correct tempo.
The reason you will want to practice playing a song with a metronome so that you can keep the tempo, is because often times we begin to speed up or slow down, especially when we perform. Just imagine how unpleasant it would be to start a song too fast in a performance and then inadvertently speed up while performing. You would not be able to keep up by the time you finished the song! It could be disastrous.
You may not think that would happen to you, but it is common. Most musicians perform a song faster when they are nervous, such as a performance. So practicing maintaining a speed is important for those times you are on display, so that you won’t play faster than is intended.
WHY DOES TEMPO MATTER?
When composers write music, they are actually writing a story. The story is told through musical notes instead of words. The tempo of the music helps to tell the story. For example, if the music is very slow, it can sound sad. If the music is very fast, it can sound happy or excited. If the music isn't played at the right tempo, you might not understand the story that the composer is trying to tell you through the notes.
In a band or an orchestra, where there are many different instruments playing at the same time, it is important that all the musicians play at the same tempo. The music won't sound right if the trumpet player is playing the music faster than the violin player, for example. They won't be at the same place in the song at the same time. The trumpeter might be playing the end of the song while the violinist is still playing the middle of the song!
