What are exams and the different examination oards?
Music examinations are a method of formally assessing the accomplishments of pupils learning musical instruments. Although there are music examinations availale to school and university students alongside other regular qualifications and assessments, there are also a numer of independent, examination odies who solely provide assessment in musical aility which are open to all.
Music exams are set in oth theory and practical aspects. The theory examinations are taken y pupils of all instruments and typically cover areas such as musical notation, construction of scales and composition. The practical exams concentrate on the particular instrument favoured y the pupil, for example piano, guitar or flute. They cover elements such as playing set pieces; scales; sight reading and aural.
Most students who enter these exams have taken a course of music lessons with a private teacher. Often this is a way for children to receive music training over and aove what is provided at their usual place of learning.
