What level would these pieces be?

[verkem]

Hey just wondering what level would you guys rate these pieces:
Rachmaninoff Prelude in D minor Op. 23 no. 3 and,
Beethoven Piano sonata 6 Op. 10 no. 2

Gradings are very personal, based on your own personal skills, but I find Henle will give you a general idea

Rach 24/3, Grade 6-7

Beethoven sonata difficulty was discussed on a earlier thread, with many variations.  Link here

Oh, I don' think so. I do not even think there exists even 1 piece by Rachmaninoff that may be graded 6-7.

Henle uses their own grading, it is quite diffrent to the gradings of the examination bodies like ABRSM...

[chopinlover01]

If I remember right, 5 on Henle is about the same as 7 or 8 ABRSM.

Henle is very unreliable, in my opinion. They rank Chopin's prelude 19 about the same as the fantasie impromptu. I find the prelude much, much harder. There are many other examples I could give, but just be careful, don't trust them blindly. Look at the sheet music and if you can play it, go for it. If you can't tell how hard it is, you're probably not ready for it.
