arpeggio  The arpeggio sign indicates that the notes should be rolled upwards, starting from the lowest note. | In music, the sounding of a chord in a way that its notes are spread out and thus heard one after the other, usually from the bottom to the top. |
| An example of arpeggios in early keyboard music can be found in Johann Sebastian Bach's Chromatic Fantasia and Fugue (1720, revised 1730), though they are much more commonly used in later music such as the Etudes of Frédéric Chopin. |
