Intro

130 independent analyses of this recording were submitted to AcousticBrainz. Most of them — 81% — put it in C major, a key signature of no sharps and no flats. The tempo printed above is the median of the 130 readings; 2% of them land within 2% of it, and the middle eight tenths of them run from 108.4 to 172.3 BPM. That is a recording the detector cannot settle on — the readings are spread far enough that the median is a summary of a disagreement rather than a measurement anybody should trust to the decimal.

At 128.1 BPM one beat lasts 468.4 milliseconds, so a sixteenth note is 117.1 ms and a dotted eighth 351.3 ms — the delay times for this recording. Counted half as fast it is 64.1 BPM, counted twice as fast 256.2. A score would mark that Allegro, by the ranges this site uses.

The analyses put the reference pitch of the recording at 434.2 Hz, which is 23 cents below concert A at 440 Hz — the sort of drift a tape machine or a slightly different mastering leaves behind. That is a fact about this transfer of the music, not about how it was played.

The dynamic complexity of the recording measures 2.29 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 0.797 on Essentia's 0-to-1 scale, which is not decibels and is not comparable to a streaming service's number.
