You’ll make the most of your musical talent, by learning how the best composers and artists make the music you love, developing the skills to help you express yourself musically in an increasingly mature way. You will listen to, play and compose in a variety of musical styles, covering topics such as Jazz, Pop and Rock, Film Music, Western Classical Tradition, Twentieth and Twenty-First Century music. You will be taught to work out how a piece of music is constructed by listening and score study, and will use the features you discover in your own compositions and performances.
GCSE grade 7 in Music
60% of the course is practical – a mixture of composing and performing to suit your strengths. Composing is assessed through coursework, whilst an externally assessed recital determines your performance grade. 40% is through an ‘appraising’ exam, covering listening skills, score analysis and contextual awareness.
