Everyone taking this qualification will study three mandatory units, which provide an essential introduction to the skills and knowledge required to be successful in music, covering the following topics: ■ Ensemble performance techniques ■ Professional practice in the music industry ■ Practical harmony and theory skills You will choose one option unit. The option units have been designed to support progression to more specialist music courses in higher education and to link with relevant occupational areas such as composition, business, technology and performance. This allows you to choose a specific specialist area in which you wish to develop your skills.

Unit 1 Practical harmony and theory skills ■ Unit 2 Professional practice in the music industry ■ Unit 3 Ensemble performance techniques ■ Unit 6 Solo Performance
