Music is unique among the arts because it exists in time. Rhythm is the aspect of music that divides music into equal pulsations of time. Rhythm has three basic elements:

Beat: the basic recurring "pulse" of the music.

Meter: the pattern of stressed and unstressed beats in the music, often expressed in a "time signature"

Tempo: the speed of the beat of the music. Usually this is given in Italian terms such as presto (very fast), allegro(Fast, happy), andante (walking pace, moderate pace), largo (slow).
