Question and Answer
Question: When using a metronome and you piece says allegro or something like that what number should you set our metronome to?
-Ashley


Answer: If you are using a metronome and you piece says as you said allegro ten you would want to set your metronome anywhere between 120-168. Here is a list of different speed and such...

Largo-----40-60
Larghetto-----60-66
Adagio-----66-76
Andante-----76-108
Moderato-----108-120
Allegro-----120-168
Presto-----168-200
Prestissimo-----200-208

Tips and advice!
When working with tricky counting like 3 beats in a measure, a metronome is often very useful help!
A great place to purchase metronomes is Chimney's violin shop! Wittner metronomes are a very good brand.
