Sysyphus, Part 2

167 independent analyses of this recording were submitted to AcousticBrainz. A bare majority of them — 71% — put it in C major, a key signature of no sharps and no flats. The tempo printed above is the median of the 167 readings; 55% of them land within 2% of it, and the middle eight tenths of them run from 108.4 to 114.4 BPM.

At 111.7 BPM one beat lasts 537.2 milliseconds, so a sixteenth note is 134.3 ms and a dotted eighth 402.9 ms — the delay times for this recording. Counted half as fast it is 55.9 BPM, counted twice as fast 223.4. A score would mark that Moderato, by the ranges this site uses.

The analyses put the reference pitch of the recording at 441 Hz, which is 4 cents above concert A at 440 Hz — close enough to standard that a tuner would not argue. That is a fact about this transfer of the music, not about how it was played.

The dynamic complexity of the recording measures 2.3 dB: that is how far the level wanders from its own average, so a small number means a loud, flat master and a large one means a recording that still breathes. Its average loudness is 0.807 on Essentia's 0-to-1 scale, which is not decibels and is not comparable to a streaming service's number.
