What pieces are considered at which level?

Its the British grading system.  The Associated Board of the Royal Schools of Music.  Thats pretty much all I know about it, since I live in Canada.  Someone can expand on this...  Personally I think the Canadian grading system makes more sence, but I'm biased, and I haven't seen in-depth how ABRSM works.  I just think its better to have 10+1 grades, easier top classify peoples levels and pieces levels... just my estranged opinion  :P ;) ;D ::)

Anyway,  The Associated Board of the Royal Schools of Music!
