Hello everyone! I was wondering, if you were to set an ABRSM grade on these pieces grade would you set them at?

Here are the pieces I had in mind:

Sonata D 959 Andantino 2nd movement (Schubert)
Impromptu op 90 no 3 (Schubert)
Impromptu op 90 no 2 (Schubert)
Moment musical op 94 no 4 (Schubert)
Moonlight sonata 3rd movement (Beethoven)
Nocturne op 27 no 2 (Chopin)

Cheers!

The pianostreet has a built in list of grades on many many pieces.
You might want to look at it.
Other than that, if you search to forum for "grade this", you will have 1000+ results. Tad annoyed.

All grade 8+

Schubert op 90/3 is in DipABRSM list, as is the whole Moonlight Sonata.
Schubert op 90/2 is on ATCL (not spoiling your thread with ABRSM/TCL debates)
Chopin op 27/2 is on LTCL

The Schubert op 94/4 I have never played... Individual Sonata movements tend to get set for Grade 8 regardless of the standard of the complete sonata. The complete D959 is on FRSM/FTCL.

The great early 20th-century composer Alexander Scriabin left us 74 published opuses, and several unpublished manuscripts, mainly from his teenage years – when he would never go to bed without first putting a copy of Chopin’s music under his pillow. All of these scores (220 pieces in total) can now be found on Piano Street’s Scriabin page. Read more
