For My Lover

141 independent analyses of this recording were submitted to AcousticBrainz. Most of them — 92% — put it in C major, a key signature of no sharps and no flats. The tempo printed above is the median of the 141 readings; 87% of them land within 2% of it, and the middle eight tenths of them run from 81.2 to 156.1 BPM.

At 81.3 BPM one beat lasts 738 milliseconds, so a sixteenth note is 184.5 ms and a dotted eighth 553.5 ms — the delay times for this recording. Counted half as fast it is 40.7 BPM, counted twice as fast 162.6. A score would mark that Andante, by the ranges this site uses.

The analyses put the reference pitch of the recording at 439 Hz, which is 4 cents below 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 3.88 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 0.906 on Essentia's 0-to-1 scale, which is not decibels and is not comparable to a streaming service's number.
