Musical rate of movement (5)

I believe the answer is:

tempo

(Other definitions for tempo that I've seen before include "Beat (music)" , "Speed at which piece of music is played" , "Pace - pacing" , "Musical beat or rhythm" , "Rhythm of piece of music" .)

I've seen this clue in the Sydney Morning Herald.
