Every piece, easiest to hardest

All 109 pieces you can play here, ordered by how hard they are to sight-read — which is not the same as how hard they are to play well. A prelude built from one repeating figure reads easily however fast it moves; six sharps ambushes you before a note sounds. Filter by composer or difficulty to find your level.

beginner 36

One hand at a time, or two moving together. Few accidentals.

intermediate 34

Both hands independent, up to three sharps or flats.

advanced 22

Denser textures, more chromaticism, keys that need watching.

expert 16

Four and five voices, remote keys, nothing that repeats for long.

The engraved score for these is malformed, so ranking them would be guesswork.

How the order was worked out

The 42 preludes are ranked by measuring the engraved scores, not by opinion: key-signature accidentals, notes per beat, accidentals outside the key, how many notes land together, how much rhythmic vocabulary is in play, range, and length. Repetition counts against difficulty — a figure that repeats is read once and then only tracked, which is why the C major prelude sits at the very top.

The library pieces carry the difficulty tier from the app's own audit. The two methods agree where they meet: that audit rates the first prelude intermediate, and the measurement independently ranks it the easiest of the 42 — so none of the Bach is filed as beginner material.
