What reading level is The Appreciation of Music volume 5 book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:

All that is needed is a descrip- tion of certain general qualities that we find in all horseSj or pieces, as the case may be. However much 65 A Guide to Music horses' tails maj' dili'er in length, we find that every horse has, for example, four legs that " match " ; a horse with legs that didn't match would tip over, and a horse that couldn't stand np would be a pretty poor apology for a horse ! In the same way, in spite of the thousand small differences in pieces of music, we find that all the... great composers have agreed on cer- tain general ways of writing, the neglect of which would make their music either monotonous or hotch- potch ; and monotonous or hotch-potch music is as bad as a horse that can't stand up.
It is these general ways of stringing tunes, like beads, on to a thread of musical form, that we have to study in this chapter. A good way to study them will be to make believe that we are ourselves compos- ing music.
Suppose, then, that a musical idea, a short mo- tive of several tones, has occurred to us.
