Field notes
The five briefs specify instrumentation, key, meter, length, and style—for example, a 16-bar galant minuet in G major and an eight-bar miniature in D Dorian and 5/4. The site says partial listens are retained but kept separate from full listens. Its ranking method is described as Bradley–Terry with bootstrap intervals, while results stay provisional below 30 judgments.
