There are many types of tempo that can be faster than allegro. Here are some of them:
- Prestissimo - extremely fast (more than 200bpm)
- Vivacissimamente - adverb of vivacissimo, "very quickly and lively"
- Vivacissimo - very fast and lively
- Presto - very fast (168-200 bpm)
- Allegrissimo - very fast
- Vivo - lively and fast
- Vivace - lively and fast (about 140 bpm)
Allegro is fast and bright or "march tempo" and comes in at about 120-168 bpm. Depending on how fast you play that, some of these others can be faster, and pretty much everything presto and above is definitely faster.
