Tempo rubato [ˈtɛmpo ruˈbaːto] (free in the presentation, Italian for: stolen time) is a musical term referring to expressive and rhythmic freedom by a slight speeding up and then slowing down of the tempo of a piece at the discretion of the soloist or the conductor. Rubato is an expressive shaping of music that is a part of phrasing.
One can distinguish two types of rubato: in one the tempo of the melody is flexible, while the accompaniment was kept in typical regular pulse (yet not rigidly in mechanical fashion; but adjusting to the melody as necessary—see below). Another type affects melody and accompaniment. While it is often associated with music of the Romantic Period, classical performers frequently use rubato for emotional expressiveness in all kinds of works.
Rubato, even when not notated, is often used liberally by musicians; e.g. singers frequently use it intuitively to let the tempo of the melody expressively shift slightly and freely above that of the accompaniment. This intuitive shifting leads to rubato's main effect: to make music sound expressive and natural. Frédéric Chopin is often mentioned in context with rubato (see Chopin's technique and performance style).
Se muy bien que soy
un amigo mas entre el monton,
que solo soy un fan de corazon
que no te para de soñar cada dia mas.
Pero se tambien entre la multitud
alguna vez pudieras ver la luz sobre mi piel
para reconocer el amor mas fiel
Yo necesito de ti como el aire
nadie te puede querer tanto asi..
Un poco de tu amor para poder vivir
un poco de tu amor me puede hacer feliz
solo un poco de tu amor es lo que pido
Dame una señal un minuto para conversar
dame tan solo una oportunidad
para poderte enamorar, cada dia mas.
pero se tambien entre la multitud
alguna vez pudieras ver la luz sobre mi piel
para reconocer el amor mas fiel.
Yo necesito de ti como el aire
nadie te puede querer tanto asi..
Un poco de tu amor para poder vivir
un poco de tu amor me puede hacer feliz
