Melodious Momentum

Let’s talk tempo! “Tempo” is simply the speed at which music is played. We can have all sorts of different emotional reactions based on the tempo to which a melody moves along. Some composers and artists use tempo changes intentionally to carry a listener through a range of emotions. One classical example is Vivaldi’s “The Four Seasons”: in particular, he incorporated a presto (fast) movement in “Summer” that goes back and forth between slower and faster paces to keep it exciting! And then a modern example of tempo change is “evermore” by Taylor Swift. 💖
