Grade for "The Lonely Man Theme"?
on: December 23, 2005, 09:57:04 PM
I took a hint and made a list of 100 pieces (actually 102) that I *wanted* to learn over the next 5 years.  It's pretty well skewed for harder pieces.  3 of grade 2, 1 of grade 4, 7 of grade 5, 11 of grade 6, 14 of grade 8, and the rest are grade 7 (66).  Lots of Bach, Beethoven, a few Gershwin.  We'll just have to see how that goes, won't we. :D

This is in addition to any pieces that my teacher gives me to study, naturally.  ;)

There was one other piece that I'd like to learn.  It is the theme music from the TV series "The Incredible Hulk".   ::) It doesn't sound all that difficult, perhaps similar in difficulty to the Prelude in C major from Bach's the WTK?

Have any of you already played this piece by Joe Harnell?  Roughly what grade level would that one fall into?

Thanks for the help!

Yep I played that one a while back, very easy. Grades 2 or 3 at a push?
