Re: MusicRecording BPM and Musical Key

In the real world, key and bpm both vary by performance, even among
performances of the same composition. Additionally, they can and do vary
within a piece.

The most obvious application of bpm in structured data being DJs and
choreographers looking for pieces at specific speeds, bpm seems like it
should belong to MusicRecording and not MusicComposition. Also, tempo
approximates bpm (or, bpm is a measure of tempo as performed) and is open
to interpretation, so most written western music has no specific bpm value
to make use of that property.
