The grade scale stops at 8; this work belongs to concert or diploma repertoire.
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.

This solo violin piece has a bittersweet yet incisive character, combining extended singing lines with moments of rhythmic urgency that call for expressive shaping of the phrase. Rated 95/100 in difficulty, it will require the soloist to show considerable virtuosity and stamina, together with precise intonation and sustained dynamic control across the instrument’s range, while avoiding mention of specific technical competencies that were not provided. The work’s period is unknown and its place in Bach’s catalogue is uncertain, which makes interpretive choices more exploratory than strictly tied to a definitive historical placement. I do not give a reference interpretation because I am not certain of widely recognized recordings for this particular work.
