Assessment

Assessment Due Date Percentage  Description
Public Recital 1 40% To be held between 6 and 16 June
Public Recital 2 60% To be held between 24 Oct and 3 Nov


Assessment is based on two public performance recitals/concerts/gigs, each examined by an external examiner and moderated by a member of the School of Music staff.  The teacher will normally be present at the examination and the post-performance discussion, but will not take part in deciding the grade. The end-of-year examiner will be subject to approval via the Examinations Office.

Examination 1:  Mid-year recital (scheduled between 6 and 16 June) of up to 45 minutes duration that includes one major work and also demonstrates a range of styles appropriate for the instrument/voice.

Examination 2:  Full recital programme (scheduled between 24 October and 3 November) of up to 50 minutes duration of material different from the mid-year recital, which includes one major work and also demonstrates a range of styles appropriate for the instrument/voice.

PLEASE NOTE:

1.  Music performance courses are not eligible for aegrotat consideration.
2.  Private video recordings of examination recitals will not be permitted.
