What reading level is Old Scores And New Readings : Discussions On Musical Subjects book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:


When he depicts the workings of nature — the wind roaring through the woods, the storm above the convent roof, the flash of the lightning, the thunderbolt — rhe does not accomplish it with the wonderful point and accuracy of Weber, nor with the ethereal delicacy of Purcell, but with a breadth, a sympathy with the passion of nature, that no other composer save Wagner has ever attained to.
He views natural phenomena through a human temperament, and so infuses human emotion into natural phenomena,
... as Wagner does in "The Valkyrie " and " Siegfried." The rapidly repeated note, now rising to a roar and now falling to a subdued murmur, in "The Erl-king" was an entirely new thing in music ; and in " The Wan- derer" piano fantasia, the working-out of the Unfinished symphony, and even in some of the chamber music, he invented things as fresh and as astounding. And when he is simply expressing himself, as at the beginning of the Unfinished, and in the first and last movements of the big C symphony, he often does it on the same large scale.
