Arthur Honegger
50/100 +20 pts 20-40 weeks

Challenge

Sergei Prokofiev

close skills moderate risk to confirm
An ambitious leap into Intermediate (around grade 5 ABRSM/RCM) — only worth starting if the practice time is really there. New compared with the previous piece: Indépendance des mains and Style moderne et contemporain — practise it slowly and hands separately before any attempt at tempo: that is where tension builds up.
Challenge

Zoltán Kodály
45/100 +15 pts 16-32 weeks
close skills moderate risk to confirm
An ambitious leap into Intermediate (around grade 5 ABRSM/RCM) — only worth starting if the practice time is really there.
