Presto (say: PREH-stoh) is an Italian music word that tells musicians to play very fast. It is a tempo marking written above the music so players know how quickly to play. Presto is faster than allegro and usually means something like 168–200 beats per minute.
Think of presto like a musical sprint — quick, lively, and exciting. The opposite would be words like lento or adagio, which mean slow.
