Largo

Florida Gulf city

Largo is a musical tempo marking indicating a very slow, broad pace—among the slowest in classical music.

The Italian word means "wide" or "broad," suggesting expansiveness and solemnity.

A largo passage unfolds with gravity and deliberation: The symphony's largo movement brought the audience to tears.

As a noun, it names a piece or section played at this tempo.
