Gentle step

The safest next step.

Gentle

A Breeze from Alabama

Scott Joplin

50/100 +5 pts 5-10 weeks

close skills low risk to confirm

A short step up, staying in Intermediate (around grade 6 ABRSM/RCM). The skill that will carry the work: Rythme général — the pitfall is the pulse drifting as soon as the writing thickens: subdivide with the metronome.

Gentle

Tarantella in A minor, G.vi217

Mikhail Ivanovich Glinka

50/100 +5 pts 5-10 weeks

close skills low risk to confirm

Gentle

Andante in C major, D.29

Franz Schubert

49/100 +4 pts 4-8 weeks

close skills low risk to confirm

A short step up, staying in Intermediate (around grade 5 ABRSM/RCM). The demand here is musical rather than mechanical: Tempo rubato — the pitfall is the pulse drifting as soon as the writing thickens: subdivide with the metronome.

Gentle

No. 4 from "Traumbilder" op. 79,4

Niels Wilhelm Gade

49/100 +4 pts 4-8 weeks

close skills low risk to confirm

A short step up, staying in Intermediate (around grade 5 ABRSM/RCM). The demand here is musical rather than mechanical: Pédale de sustain — the pedal is set by ear, note by note: misjudged, it blurs the harmony instead of joining it.

Gentle

Auf dem Strom

Franz Schubert

48/100 +3 pts 4-8 weeks

close skills low risk to confirm

A short step up, staying in Intermediate (around grade 5 ABRSM/RCM). The demand here is musical rather than mechanical: Legato — practise it slowly and hands separately before any attempt at tempo: that is where tension builds up.

Balanced step

A genuine step up, without a jolt.

Bagatelle in C minor, WoO 52

Ludwig van Beethoven

56/100 +11 pts 10-20 weeks

close skills moderate risk to confirm

A real step up, staying in Intermediate (around grade 6 ABRSM/RCM). The demand here is musical rather than mechanical: Tempo rubato — the pitfall is the pulse drifting as soon as the writing thickens: subdivide with the metronome.

Allegretto, KK VIIb/7

Frédéric Chopin

54/100 +9 pts 10-20 weeks

close skills moderate risk to confirm

A real step up, staying in Intermediate (around grade 6 ABRSM/RCM). The skill that will carry the work: Rythme général — the pitfall is the pulse drifting as soon as the writing thickens: subdivide with the metronome.

6 Moments musicaux, D.780, op. 94

Franz Schubert

53/100 +8 pts 10-20 weeks

close skills moderate risk to confirm

A real step up, staying in Intermediate (around grade 6 ABRSM/RCM). New compared with the previous piece: Voix chantante — the notes will be secure long before the musical line: work in whole phrases, singing the main voice.

Ambitious challenge

A useful leap with guided practice.

Challenge

Piano Sonata D flat major D 567

Franz Schubert

62/100 +17 pts 24-48 weeks

partial transfer high risk to confirm

An ambitious leap while staying in Intermediate (around grade 7 ABRSM/RCM) — only worth starting if the practice time is really there. New compared with the previous piece: Connaissance des formes and Style classique — understand the form and the harmony before memorising, or memory collapses the moment you play for someone.

Challenge

Rêverie L.68

Claude Debussy

61/100 +16 pts 24-48 weeks

partial transfer high risk to confirm

An ambitious leap while staying in Intermediate (around grade 7 ABRSM/RCM) — only worth starting if the practice time is really there. New compared with the previous piece: Voix chantante — the notes will be secure long before the musical line: work in whole phrases, singing the main voice.

Challenge

Piano Sonata A flat major D 557

Franz Schubert

60/100 +15 pts 24-48 weeks

partial transfer moderate risk to confirm

An ambitious leap while staying in Intermediate (around grade 6 ABRSM/RCM) — only worth starting if the practice time is really there. New compared with the previous piece: Analyse harmonique and Style classique — understand the form and the harmony before memorising, or memory collapses the moment you play for someone.

Same level

To widen the repertoire without raising the level.

Same level

Piano Sonata G major K. 283 (189h)

Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart

44/100 -1 pts 3-4 weeks

new reflexes low risk to confirm

Equivalent demands, right at the edge of Elementary (around grade 5 ABRSM/RCM): different ground, same level. What changes is the skill in play: Connaissance des formes and Indépendance des mains — understand the form and the harmony before memorising, or memory collapses the moment you play for someone.

Same level

March in E major, D.606

Franz Schubert

47/100 +2 pts 3-4 weeks

partial transfer low risk to confirm

Equivalent demands, still Intermediate (around grade 5 ABRSM/RCM): what changes is the ground. What changes is the skill in play: Technique générale — practise it slowly and hands separately before any attempt at tempo: that is where tension builds up.

Same level

Nacht und Träume

Franz Schubert

42/100 -3 pts 3-4 weeks

partial transfer low risk to confirm

Equivalent demands, right at the edge of Elementary (around grade 5 ABRSM/RCM): different ground, same level. What changes is the skill in play: Voix chantante and Mémorisation — the notes will be secure long before the musical line: work in whole phrases, singing the main voice.

Progressions computed from difficulty, skill overlap and style between works. A What do we play next? recommendation should remain a pedagogical starting point, not an automatic prescription.
