Past performance practice is a huge subject in itself, but much of the evidence indicates that allegros were played more slowly in the late eighteenth century, as well, of course, at a lower pitch. However, articulation would have been much lighter, which in itself would have given an illusion of greater speed. If, like me, you consider that music is linked with dance, then a look at how people dressed at that time would suggest a less strenuous approach. I think that if a Mr. Ripvanwinkle came back from the eighteenth century, he would find everything about our society to be frenetic, including the music.
