    They are known as hummingbirds because of the humming sound created by their beating wings, which flap at high frequencies audible to other birds and humans. They hover at rapid wing-flapping rates, which vary from around 12 beats per second in the largest species to 80 per second in small hummingbirds.

    A metronome (from Ancient Greek μέτρον (métron) 'measure' and νόμος (nómos) 'law') is a device that produces an audible click or other sound at a uniform interval that can be set by the user, typically in beats per minute (BPM).

    For example, a tempo of 60 beats per minute signifies one beat per second, while a tempo of 120 beats per minute is twice as rapid, signifying two beats every second. The note value of a beat will typically be that indicated by the denominator of the time signature. For instance, in 4 4 time, the beat will be a crotchet, or quarter note.

    If a pulse becomes too fast it would become a drone; one that is too slow would be perceived as unconnected sounds. [2] When the period of any continuous beat is faster than 8–10 per second or slower than 1 per 1.5–2 seconds, it cannot be perceived as such. [2] "Musical" pulses are generally specified in the range 40–240 beats per minute.

    As defined by the basic definition (4 beats per measure/bar), allegro is defined as fast, quick, and bright, meaning a tempo below 120 bpm isn't really defined as fast (though 112 bpm is moderately fast), and 120 bpm means 2 bps (beats per second), which makes it the reliable threshold for allegro. After all, 120 bpm = 30 measures/bars per minute.
