Course summary

It will develop students understanding of the music they play which enables them to access it at a higher level, extending their appreciation of familiar and unfamiliar music. This specification offers a range of musical experience- including solo or ensemble performance, composition and analysis. Learners choose to specialise in composition or performance and will choose to learn in-depth about either Rock and Pop, Musical Theatre or Jazz.
