  Tempo (chess) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Thus a player can be said to "lose a tempo" when taking one more move than necessary to achieve something, or to "gain a tempo" when taking only two moves to do what would have taken three by other methods, for example.
A simple example of losing a tempo may be moving a rook from a1 to a5 (see algebraic chess notation) and from there to a8; simply moving from a1 to a8 would have achieved the same result with a tempo to spare.
Gaining tempo may be achieved, for example, by developing a piece while delivering check, though here too, if the check can be countered by the development of a piece, the net result may be nil.

 Tempo - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Mathematical tempo markings of this kind became increasingly popular during the first half of the 19th century, after the metronome had been invented, although early metronomes were somewhat unreliable; Beethoven's metronome markings, in particular, are notoriously unreliable.
The association of tempo with genre means that genres can be used to imply tempos; thus Ludwig van Beethoven wrote "In tempo d'un Menuetto" over the first movement of his Piano Sonata Op.
Because of their negative connotation, neither rush nor drag (nor their equivalents in other languages) are often used as tempo indications in scores, Mahler being a notable exception: as part of a tempo indication he used schleppend ("dragging") in the first movement of his Symphony No. 1, for example.

The verb "disambiguate" is defined in Merriam Webster's Collegiate Dictionary as follows: "to establish a single semantic or grammatical interpretation for." If applied to this disk, then, the title suggests that Pandelis Karayorgis is attempting to define his music in a single interpretation.
Disambiguation is far too complex and far too worthy a disk to confine to one interpretation.

Tempo, like pitch and dynamics, is often about relationships, and tempo is not an abstract, independent parameter laid on top of music.
Perhaps the performers thought they were choosing the indicated tempo and performance nerves caused problems with their time sense.

If two people tap their feet to the same music but one taps twice as fast as the other, neither is wrong; they simply take different note-values as their unit of time.
Much music is characterised by a sequence of stressed and unstressed beats organised into a meter and indicated by a time signature, the speed of which is determined by a tempo.
In the context of a time signature, the term "beat" most often means the denominator; so in 3/4, most people would consider the beat to be the 4, that is, a quarter-note or crotchet.

That considerably alters what a composer can reasonably expect in terms of tempo, dynamics, balance, etc. The failings of a live space do not have to be replicated on a recording -- even if it is a recording of the same concert in the same live space concertgoers heard.
