Official level, taken from the exam syllabus.
Difficulty estimate by MusicCoach on a scale of 1 to 100.
Most works cluster between 45 and 65: a small score gap often marks a real step. The highlighted bar shows this work among those for the same instrument.
The MusicCoach difficulty measures a work's overall demands (technique, reading, stamina) on a shared 0-100 scale, consolidated from editorial and pedagogical reference points (Henle, exam syllabuses, curation) and our own analyses. It measures neither musical value nor the practice time YOU will need: two musicians of the same level can experience the same work very differently depending on their strengths (hands used to octaves, quick sight-reading…). The confidence reflects how many reference points sit behind the score and how well they agree — a lightly documented score is flagged “to validate”. For a truly personal bearing, the diagnostic and your space compare each work to YOUR estimated level, which the score alone cannot do.
Does this rating look right to you?
This rating is computed automatically from heterogeneous sources. It gets things wrong, sometimes badly. If you know this work, your answer is worth more than our computation: it tells us which ratings to review.
Each suggestion combines difficulty gap, risk, confidence and skill overlap. The first two cards in each column are the most useful pedagogically.

This Allegretto in C major feels buoyant and playful, with short phrases and light rhythmic drive that call for clarity rather than weight. Technically, Sight-reading (2.5/5) here means you must stay alert to quick articulation changes and hand transitions without pausing, and Phrasing (2.5/5) requires shaping the small question-and-answer figures through controlled attacks and releases; the concrete gestures are measured releases between figures to reveal the form. The piece is listed as Op.33 in Haydn's catalogue and belongs to the group of light salon or chamber works that have often been adapted for piano. I am not giving a reference recording because I am not 100% certain of a specific widely recognized interpretation for this arranged version.
