Which term means ‘with grace’?

• A. Con grazia
• B. Con tenerezza
• C. Con brio
• D. Rinforzando

Answer: (A)

Con grazia means with grace. In musical notation, con means with and grazia is grace, so this marking tells you to play with elegance, smoothness, and poised phrasing. It’s about a refined, graceful character in the line.

The other terms point to different expressions: con tenerezza is with tenderness, con brio is with vigor and lively energy, and rinforzando indicates reinforcing or suddenly making a passage louder. Those ideas don’t convey grace in the same way, which is why con grazia is the best fit for “with grace.”
