Probably music where there is no consistent tempo because the BPM's change? Not sure..

Depends on what the music is, but what you're looking for might be 'recitative'. This means you can take the melody at whatever pace (and sometimes meter) needed to express the music appropriately. I'm a vocalist so I've only seen it in vocal music, but I'm almost certain it exists accross the board.

rubato might be what your asking for. Check out this site. http://www.dolmetsch.com/musictheory5.htm

I was not able to find such a term. The only time I have ever played a piece of music that didn't have a set tempo was part of a solo I was playing where I was allowed to play the notes in whatever tempo I wanted. But for the life of me...I don't think it had a certain term.

senza tempo (senza meaning without)
-
I don't believe there's a particular term for one, but the word "rubato" is An important characteristic of the Romantic period. It is a style where the strict tempo is temporarily abandoned for a more emotional tone.

There's libero and liberamente, both of which mean freely. There's also rubato, in which the tempo is less fixed and more expressive.
-
If you can't find it in music.........just go to the dictionary and a picture of me will be next to "without tempo"
-
The most common term used for "without tempo" is "Ad Lib", which is short for Ad libitum (at liberty) - this indicates the performer is to take liberties with the tempo. There are other terms, though I have not seen them myself on any of the music that I've performed in the 20 or so years I performed in orchestras- A piacere - Freedom in performance. Synonymous with ad libitum. Liberamento - Freely.

Play the tempo that fits with the music. don't play a fast temp to sad music and not a slow one to exited music. Thats just retarded. Think about it an exited person talking in slow motion. Ahhh!
-
Most of the time its tempo rubato, meaning you don't limit yourself with any rythem or any tempo, which gives the performer, you, to be creative in your own style. I believe pop music has this characteristic.
-
There is also "Allargando" which means getting slower and broader(more majestic).
-
If you'r talking for a portion of a piece played by a soloist you can indicate it as a cadenza. A cadenza is played freely usualy to allow the soloist to show his skill.
-
I always believed that Tempo rubato was a means of expression indicative of the Romantic period, particularily used in Fredéric Chopin's work. When I have played pieces that indicate rubato, its more or less a creative license to pull back the speed of the tempo in certain measures much like and ad lib, or cadenza method. However, I always revisit the correct tempo(a tempo) to aid in continuity and flow. I would suggest senza tempo.
