Obbligato being forced to practice
Con Moto yeah baby, I have a car
Allegro a little car
Metronome short, city musician who can fit into a Honda Civic
Lento the days leading up to Easto
Largo beer brewed in Germany or the Florida Keys
Piu Animato clean out the cat's litter box
Interval time to meet the other players at the bar
Perfect Interval when the drinks are on the house
Cantabile singing while drunk
Con Spirito drunk again
Colla Voce this shirt is so tight I can't sing
Improvisation what you do when the music falls down
Prelude warm-up before the clever stuff
Flats English apartments
Chords things organists play with one finger
Discords things that organists play with two fingers
Suspended Chords useful for lynching the vocalist
Syncopation bowel condition brought on by an overdose of jazz
(HORNISTS, TAKE NOTE!)
Time Signatures things for drummers to ignore
Virtuoso a person who can work wonders with easy-play
music
Professional anyone who can't hold down a steady job
Melody an ancient, now almost completely extinct art in
songwriting
