Classical piano music can be divided into three main eras;

• The Baroque Period (1600-1750)
• The Classical Period (1750-1820)
• The Romantic Period (1820-1910)

Music after that is usually just called 20th and 21st-century music, and even Modern. Who knows what these music periods will be named in the future? 

Graded Levels of Free Classical Piano Music for Beginners to Intermediate Players

The pieces (medium-difficulty piano sheet music) are graded from levels 1-6 and organized in different periods/ styles. The pieces have been selected as some of the easiest, pedagogically sound, and well-known organized by each composer.

The levels indicate difficulty and are based on mainstream exam levels. But don’t feel afraid of testing something a bit above your own level! This might actually help you to pull yourself to a higher level!

If you love a piece- there is magic in what you can do! I have seen that over and over again…

Just don’t go overboard in difficulty- and keep working with your piano lesson book and note reading and technique simultaneously.

An Explanation of the Different Levels
