Déjà vu

164 independent analyses of this recording were submitted to AcousticBrainz. A bare majority of them — 68% — put it in E minor, a key signature of 1 sharp. The tempo printed above is the median of the 164 readings; 92% of them land within 2% of it, and the middle eight tenths of them run from 132.8 to 135.6 BPM.

At 135.5 BPM one beat lasts 442.8 milliseconds, so a sixteenth note is 110.7 ms and a dotted eighth 332.1 ms — the delay times for this recording. Counted half as fast it is 67.8 BPM, counted twice as fast 271. A score would mark that Allegro, by the ranges this site uses.

The analyses put the reference pitch of the recording at 435.4 Hz, which is 18 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 4.65 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 0.784 on Essentia's 0-to-1 scale, which is not decibels and is not comparable to a streaming service's number.
