Grades...

Does there exist list of which pieces are for which grade?
I mean for pieces like marche funebre, black keys...

Hmm, I think the list will differ depending on your location.

I kind of get the feeling this isn't the right subforum for that sort of question . . .

It's not

Well, the ABRSMDip/LRSM/FRSM syllabus has a list of music that qualifies for each level, maybe you can take a look at that.

It depends from institution to institution. You need to request a booklet with all the pieces for the grades FOR A SPESIFIC INSTRUMENT. Hope it helps!

Yeah, I love it when some UK kid comes on here and throws whatever grade/ exam they just passes as if it has any significance to the people from America on here. Band kids too, when they are like.. "I played a grade 8!!" Sorry.. but string players... with ASTA ratings.. we go up to a 6.... so 'eff all of you.

Meh. I don't like ASTA ratings.

So? That wasn't the point. It is funny how people just assume they know what you're talking about.

ASTA ratings are pretty right anyway.

ABRSM is probably the main one used in the UK, and it's actually rather common worldwide, so it's a fair thing to state an ABRSM grade.
They go from 1-8 and then you can get a Diploma, Licentiate, and Fellowship of the Royal Schools of music.
I don't think I've met many FRSM holders.
I know a lot of people with DipABRSM, but it's still really hard to get.
