Tenuto is a musical term that directs a note to be played for its full duration, with a slight emphasis. It is typically marked by a horizontal line (–) placed above or below the note. This marking indicates that the note should be held firmly and fully, often with a bit of extra weight, to ensure it is clearly heard and given proper value within the musical phrase. Tenuto helps to add emphasis and shape to the performance of the note.
