Ansioso
A restless, anxious manner
Related
Ansioso is an expression mark: play with unease, urgency, suspense. It is not "fast": a slow passage can be anxious through unstable accents, short breaths and unresolved harmony.
It is close to agitato, but agitato stresses agitation, ansioso psychological suspense and worry. The usual mistake is to play it louder and faster — anxiety comes from instability under control, not from losing control.
