What does SUBITO mean in Scrabble?
adverb
music
Suddenly, used as a direction in music telling the players to make the change at once.
Composers add subito to another marking, as in piano subito, to say that a shift in loudness must happen with no gradual build. It is Italian for at once, and it sits in scores alongside other borrowed words such as forte and allegro. Performers read it as a warning not to ease into the change but to make it abruptly, which creates a startling contrast.
