Music A Level is built from three strands: performance, composition and analysis. The course hones pre-existent skills in performance and composition, culminating in two compositions and a ten-minute recorded recital. The course’s third unit – listening and analysis – involves the study of Music for Media, Music for Theatre and Western Classical Music in the Baroque, Classical and Romantic styles. Students study harmony, consider how music relates to extramusical ideas and learn how to write about music. This A Level equips students with both creative and academic skills through study of, and in, the unique and beautiful language that is music.
To achieve at least six GCSE passes at Grade 6 or above. For some subjects where nationally, the GCSE score is above average (such as Maths), Grade 7 is required.
