Fortissimo Dynamic marking and meaning

'f-p' is written to tell the player that it's forte for the first time through, and the repeat is piano.

Dynamics are traditionally indicated by a range of Italian terms revolving around the terms piano (“soft”) and forte (“loud”), indicated in notated music with the letters p and f. These terms are further refined to include a range of louder and softer dynamics.

This is called fortissimo (for-TEE-see-mo).
