Rhythm
There are three levels of rhythm

Pulse: the heartbeat of the composition
Meter: the arrangement of the pulses into a pattern of strong and weak beats
Rhythmic Patterns: a set of beats and rests that defines the tempo and pace of a musical piece

Time Signature: tells how many of which type of beat are in each measure
Ex: 2/4 is two quarter notes in each measure
Tempo: how fast or slow the piece is played
Ex: Largo, Adagio, Andante, Allegro, Presto
accelerando and ritardando
Syncopation: when the composers put the accents on the weak beats instead of the strong ones
