Bèrèbè is a salon waltz by the renowned publisher-composer Giulio Ricordi. It captures the charming, light-hearted aesthetic of late 19th-century Italian drawing-room music.
The waltz rhythm requires a supple wrist to avoid a heavy, pounding downbeat.
Comparable difficulty and character — good candidates for what to learn next.
Bèrèbè is rated Henle level 4 of 9 — intermediate repertoire, roughly ABRSM grades 5–6. In the RCM system it corresponds to about level 5.
You should be comfortable at Henle level 4 — meaning you can already play level 3–4 pieces cleanly. Learning it one level early is possible as a stretch piece, but more than that usually leads to months of frustration.
A typical performance of Bèrèbè lasts about 3 minutes.
Bèrèbè is available as free public-domain sheet music on IMSLP — the score is linked directly from this page.
