Adagio ...this italian word is a composer's way of telling a perfomer to play their music very slowly...Adagio is slower then andante but faster then largo....Slow movements, in general are often simply called "adagios"....because so many bear this marking.
Allegro ..a speed instruction from composer to a performer. The message is to play fast-not,however, as fast as persto but faster then allegretto...
Probablly the most famous allegro of all is the ......"da...da...da...der" of Beethovens's 5th Symphony.
