*These ratings are not meant to imply that an ensemble should not perform/attempt music in a lower or higher rating category. There is much music of value that is relatively easy (technically) and should be performed by advanced ensembles. Likewise, there is value in performing music that is more difficult than previously attempted compositions. These ratings are merely an approximation intended to give an overall picture of the relative difficulty of a given composition.
