We can compact it a bit like this:

But that's horrible too.
I tend to format such like this:
int difficulty;
switch(e.note.note)
{
case 60: .. case 71: difficulty = 0; break;
case 72: .. case 83: difficulty = 1; break;
case 84: .. case 95: difficulty = 2; break;
case 96: .. case 107: difficulty = 3; break;
default: difficulty = -1; break;
}
By lining things up, it takes on a tabular appearance. People are good at
inferring patterns, and such tabular arrangements make it easy to spot squeaky
wheels.

That's probably a good idea.
