Andantino
slightly more moving than andante, 80–108
Andantino lies between 80 and 108 beats per minute; the metronome starts in the middle, and the tempo can be changed there.
What it means
The diminutive of andante — and one of the few whose direction is disputed: it can also mean slightly slower. In doubt, the character decides.
