If you want to write these indications above the staff with a
"good-looking" separation from it, you can use the following command:

----------------------------------------------------------
\score {
  \notes \relative c'' {
    % Move textscripts two steps left and three steps up.
    \property Staff.TextScript
        \override #'extra-offset = #'(-2 . 3)

    c4^#'((Large upright) "Allegro")

    % Restore defaults
    \property Staff.TextScript \revert #'extra-offset

    d e f
    ...
  }
}
----------------------------------------------------------

The trick is in '(-2 . 3)': the first number gives the horizontal offset,
the second the vertical one.

Bye
Maurizio
