Estimated from our difficulty score, not taken from an exam syllabus. Checked against 333 works on the ABRSM syllabus: the exact grade is right 7 times out of 10, and within one grade 99 times out of 100.
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.
The safest next step.
A genuine step up, without a jolt.
A useful leap with guided practice.
L'œuvre dégage une tension de quête intérieure : des motifs qui s'enchaînent comme des réponses et des reprises, avec des silences et des suspensions qui maintiennent une attente continue. Vous aurez à travailler la Polyphonie à trois voix ou plus (2.5/5) en distinguant nettement chaque voix par l'indépendance des mains et le placement des doigts (soutenir une basse tout en laissant chanter une voix intérieure et la ligne principale), et le Legato (2.5/5) qui exige des raccords de doigt précis et des déplacements de main souples pour lier les phrases sans perdre la clarté des voix. Cette pièce figure sous un numéro BWV dans le catalogue de Bach et relève du répertoire des cantates, ici abordée en transcription pour piano, s'inscrivant donc dans son écriture baroque.
