A guide to musical tempo

Musical tempo can be complex to learn, and more importantly, to understand if you aren't very fluent in Italian (and a bit of Latin). Hopefully, this will help explain most of the musical terms out there pertaining to tempo and expression. There is no need to do all the levels if something doesn't interest you. This is separated by categories and the only one that's a little tricky is the last level (although it is arguably the most useful). Pick and choose as you like!
