Music

Course summary

GCSE music is desirable but not a pre-requisite. However, it is expected that all students will have a secure working knowledge of music theory as well as a minimum of Grade V on their principal instrument or voice at the start of the course. Please note that there is an expectation from the exam board that A Level Music students should be around grade VI – VII (ABRSM/Trinity) by the end of Sixth Form in order to access the top grades. The course provides further development of the skills gained through GCSE in the key areas of Listening, Analysing, Composing and Performing.
