This course offers a solid musical foundation, requiring performing, composing, listening and analytical skills in almost equal measure and with considerable scope for the development of each individual’s special talents. You will improve your skills in performing and composing in a range of styles. You will listen to a wide variety of music and develop a more informed appreciation of how and why it was written and/or performed. As a Sixth Form Music student, you will be encouraged to take some responsibility for music within the school, participating in activities and taking the lead whenever possible.

Unit 1: Teacher-assessed performance. Externally moderated. Unit 2: Compositions are externally assessed. Unit 3: 2 hour 30 minute examination: • Analysing and evaluating music • Familiar and unfamiliar pieces • Prescribed works • Questions based on aural extracts
