Preludio e fuga, Op.19 No.1

Preludio e fuga, Op.19 No.1

Giacomo Setaccioli · unknown · Level 3 · Independent toes

The staff detector confirms Preludio e fuga, Op.19 No.1 has a genuine pedal part; on the genre heuristic it reads as a independent toe-pedal piece (fugue), which places it provisionally at Level 3 · Independent toes. On John Stainer’s pedal syllabus this sits at the Use of Alternate Toes / Scale-Passages stage: An independent toes-only pedal line, still before the heel is introduced.

Why this piece teaches it

Use of Alternate Toes: Exercises. Scale-Passages.

— Stainer, The Organ: A Manual of the True Principles of Organ Playing (Novello Primer, 1877; ed. 1909) (the Use of Alternate Toes / Scale-Passages stage of the pedal syllabus).

Confidence: ◐ pedal confirmed from score — level still heuristic. The staff detector confirmed a genuine pedal part in the score, so the pedal writing is real (not a heuristic guess); the level itself is still placed by the genre heuristic, not individually score-graded.
