Down by the Seaside

204 independent analyses of this recording were submitted to AcousticBrainz. Most of them — 93% — put it in F major, a key signature of 1 flat. The tempo printed above is the median of the 204 readings; 99% of them land within 2% of it, and the middle eight tenths of them run from 93.4 to 94.5 BPM.

At 94.4 BPM one beat lasts 635.6 milliseconds, so a sixteenth note is 158.9 ms and a dotted eighth 476.7 ms — the delay times for this recording. Counted half as fast it is 47.2 BPM, counted twice as fast 188.8. A score would mark that Andante, by the ranges this site uses.

The analyses put the reference pitch of the recording at 440.8 Hz, which is 3 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 3.3 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 0.751 on Essentia's 0-to-1 scale, which is not decibels and is not comparable to a streaming service's number.
