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.

A genuine step up, without a jolt.
A useful leap with guided practice.
This Andante feels like an intimate, contained song with a slow forward pulse and motifs that demand a sustained melodic line rather than virtuosic display. You will need to focus first on Phrasing (4.0/5), which here means shaping each phrase with clear choices of emphasis and musical breathing, and on Bow Legato (cello) (3.5/5), meaning careful bow distribution, smooth changes of direction and clean string crossings to keep an unbroken line. The work's period is unknown, and it should be approached as part of the composer's chamber output for cello and piano rather than as an orchestral or solo piece.
