SFORZANDO, sforzato, forzato (sforzando, sforzato, forzato, ital., From sforzare, forzare - exert strength; abbr. Sf, sfz, fz) - a designation that prescribes a louder performance of a sound or chord at which it stands. From the 19th century Together with rinforzando (rin-forzato) it is often considered equivalent to sforzato piano (sfp), i.e. sf followed by piano. A particularly strong emphasis on sound or chord is indicated by a superlative degree from S. - sforzatissimo (abbr. Ffz, sffz).
