In Master tour, clearing this stage will unlock Nocturne 'La Separation'.

## Difficulty

This stage, strangely, is not that hard, unlike many other standard Technical 7 stages. The note patterns are not too complex nor too fast, which reduces the stage's difficulty.

In Master tour, players need to clear Symphony No. 5, Mov. I to unlock this stage, and clearing this stage will unlock Farandole from "L'arlesienne Suite No. 2".

## Difficulty

This stage shares many similiarities with the previous stage - Symphony No. 5, Mov. I, so every advices from Beethoven's stage can also be applied here. The only notable difference is that this stage requires higher score for Master stage, 985,000, so high accuracy is required.
Piano Quintet in A major, D. 667, Mov. IV

Piano Quintet in A major, D. 667, Mov. IV is the name of a stage in the game Pianista. It is located as the 1st stage in Schubert - The Essential.

Many beginners may find some note patterns hard to follow as this is a Technical 6 stage but this should not be a severe problem.
12 Etudes, Op. 8, No. 6

12 Etudes, Op. 8, No. 6 is the name of a stage in the game Pianista. It is located as the 4th stage in Romantic Times.

## Difficulty

This stage is really similar to 8 Klavierstucke, Op. 76, II. Capriccio. However, this one is slightly harder from the way the notes appear in pairs, mixing both single and long notes, to the nearly fast speed.

Practices should be done before trying this stage in Master.
Tarantella

Miss 2Scores 970,000

The difficulty of this stage rises steadily throughout the gameplay. It starts with a calm beginning which will lead to the quite complex but still playable middle part and ends with a very fast finale which many intermediate players find insane. If the finale of the Normal difficulty is filled with glissandos, the ending of both Technical and Master difficulties are filled with very fast and chaotic single notes. Players should practice Caprice No. 24 (Franz Liszt) to be familiar with this part.

## Trivia

* Also, this is the second Technical 8 stage that introduces a new composer, the first stage is Caprice No. 24 (Franz Liszt) by Paganini.

In Master tour, players need to clear Invention in A minor, BWV 784 to unlock this stage, and clearing this stage will unlock Un Sospiro.

## Difficulty

Beware of sudden change in music in this stage. For example, the part near middle is faster than the rest of the gameplay, while the part after middle consists of multiple single notes in stable place, just like 12 Etudes, Op. 8, No. 12. Besides these, this stage is quite similar to the previous one.
Suite in D minor, III. Sarabande

Suite in D minor, III. Sarabande is the name of a stage in the game Pianista. It is located as the 2nd stage in 1st Anniversary.

In Master tour, players need to clear Orchestral Suite No. 3, II. Air to unlock this stage, and clearing this stage will unlock Autumn from "The Four Seasons".

## Difficulty

The gameplay of this stage is similar to Lascia Ch'io Pianga from "Rinaldo". However, this stage is much easier than Handel's Technical 4 stage in the Standard Tour because it is shorter. The difficulty of this stage is easier than the previous stage in the pack because the gameplay only contains single and long notes.

## Trivia

## Difficulty

The general pattern of this stage is really similar to the one of the previous stage in this music pack. From the continuous single and long notes on moderate speed, to the glissandos at random moments in the gameplay.

However, this stage is quite short, so good accuracy is required to clear this stage in Master.
Compilation of Keyboard

Compilation of Keyboard is the name of a music pack in the game Pianista.

It was added as a part of v2.2.2 update, which fully arrived at 8.00 UTC, on April 5th, 2018.

L'Estro Armonico, Op. 3, No. 6

In Master tour, players need to clear Slavonic Dances, Op. 72, No. 2 to unlock this stage, and clearing this stage will unlock Jesu, Joy of Man's Desiring.

## Difficulty

Overall, the note patterns appearing continuously, along with the medium-fast pace of the piece, are what make this stage a medium, even near hard stage, for unexperienced players.

Especially in Technical and Master difficulty, lots of single notes will appear, and getting a lot of Marvelous is not an easy task. Before moving on to this stage in Master, players should practice in Technical mode to memorize the patterns and increase their accuracy.

## Trivia

* Before v2.2.0 update, this stage has Normal 3 difficulty.
* This stage's position in every difficulty (9) is the same.
Eine Kleine Nachtmusik, Mov. IV

Eine Kleine Nachtmusik, Mov. IV is the name of a stage in the game Pianista. It is located as the 29th stage in Standard Tour.

In Master tour, players need to clear Three Marches Militaires, No. 1 to unlock this stage, and clearing this stage will unlock Lascia Ch'io Pianga from "Rinaldo".

## Difficulty

Do not judge this stage by its difficulty number. In Light or Normal difficulty, this stage should be completed normally.

In spite of that ease in other difficulties, this stage is a huge problem in Technical and Master difficulties. Hard staircase patterns and large quantities of multiple-tap patterns will appear regularly throughout the gameplay. Some glissandos appear along these patterns as well. With that being said, this is definitely not a Technical 6 stage. Combining those hard patterns with its long length, very high score requirement, and having to miss less than 2 times makes it a complete nightmare in Master difficulty that even experienced players suffer in this stage for a very long time. The best advice that can be given here is practice this stage a lot, both in Technical and Master difficulty. By practicing, number of misses may decrease and highest score may increase. Lots of practices are suggested. Once having enough confidence, passing this stage in Master difficulty is just a matter of time.

## Trivia

The codename of this stage is Mozart K.525 Serenade No.13 in G major, 4th movement, "Eine Kleine Nachtmusik"

In Master tour, clearing this stage will unlock The Carnival of the Animals: XII. Fossils.

## Difficulty

Despite having Technical 6 difficulty, this stage is easier than most of what players will expect. All of the gameplay is just single and long notes, the speed is quite slow, and there are sudden glissandos at the middle of the stage.

As the first stage of a pack, this stage is really easy. Every player can easily complete this stage in every difficulty.

Franz Liszt

Sergei Rachmaninoff

Frederic Chopin

Compilation of Keyboard 5 is the name of a music pack in the game Pianista.

In Master tour, players need to clear 6 Etudes, Op. 111, No. 6 to unlock this stage.

## Difficulty

Many professional players have reasons to say this is the 2nd hardest stage in the whole game Pianista. The speed requirement here is even faster than the previous stage, combining with staircase pattern, it is understandable why many players cannot complete combo requirement in Technical difficulty.

Lots of practice, and patience, are required in order to clear this stage in Master difficulty.

## Trivia

## Difficulty

Speed is the key to pass this stage. Besides from fast notes appearing simultaneously, the stage is not too hard due to repeative structures. If players are not confident about their tapping speed, Piano Concerto No. 1, Op. 23, Mov. I is a suitable stage to practice speed, because of the fast finale. Players need to pay attention to their accuracy in Master because the score requirement is very high and messing up just a section of the stage can cause their scores to drop significantly. Once gaining the required speed and accuracy, players can pass this stage in every difficulty.

## Trivia

* Before v2.2.0 update, this stage has Normal 4 difficulty.
* The codename of this stage is Toccata and Fugue in D minor, BWV 565

## Difficulty

Except for the beginning, the gameplay of this stage is technically a section that was repeated. However, the really long gameplay (almost 3 minutes), combining with fast speed, and nearly everything in the gameplay is in double-tap pattern, are what make this stage really hard despite being rated as a Technical 7.

* The codename of this stage is String Quartet No.17 In F major Op.3-5 "Serenade" - II. Andante Cantabile

Overall, this is a hard pack, as there are pieces with Technical 8 and Technical 9 difficulty which are both by Grieg.

In Master tour, players need to clear Revolutionary Etude to unlock this stage, and clearing this stage will unlock Arrival of the Queen of Sheba.

## Difficulty

High combo/score requirement, extremely insane patterns, and long gameplay are what make this stage a very hard stage.

In Light and Normal difficulty, no need to discuss a lot since these difficulties are not too hard.

However, Technical difficulty is technically far harder than the previous stage, Revolutionary Etude. Very few people can pass in first try and reach 350 combo. In order to pass this difficulty, practice is so far the fastest option.

In Master difficulty, this stage is one of the most challenging stages for many experienced players due to many factors, two of them are score requirement and miss limitation. Same advice for Technical stage is also applied here, which is practice. The only difference here might be the amount of practice.

## Difficulty

According to some players, this is harder than Tarantella. The whole stage is heavily based on very fast single notes which makes for a very brutal playing experience. In the end, lots of fast multiple-tap patterns will appear after a very tiring stream of single notes. A lot of practice and patience are recommended for the best players to clear this stage in Technical or Master.

Although not being suggested, using shields may help players to reach the requirement in order to clear this insane stage.

## Difficulty

Some parts of this stage are glissando notes on one side and holding notes in the other side just like the middle part of The Lark. Single notes still appear in larger quantities than the glissandos and watch out for the complicated pattern of single notes near the end of the gameplay.

Since the stage has a significant amount of glissandos, getting the score requirement in Master should be less of a problem. Players need to pay attention to the patterns to avoid missing.

## Trivia

* Although being put after Prelude in F sharp minor, Op. 28, No. 8 in the Collection menu, this stage's position in tour is before Prelude in F sharp minor, Op. 28, No. 8.
