Plural of arpeggio; multiple musical passages where a chord is played with its notes sounded in rapid succession.
From Italian arpeggio (from arpeggiare, to play like a harp). The plural maintains the Italian form even in English, similar to other musical terms like pianos or solos.
Learning arpeggios on piano is like learning fundamental scales—countless piano students have practiced C major and G major arpeggios so many times that they can play them in their sleep, making them one of music's most universal training tools.
