Music

Your end of year test in music will cover all of the genres studied so far in lessons (blues, reggae, film music, classical orchestral music and musical theatre).

This is a listening test, meaning you will answer short questions on the music heard e.g. What is the tonality of this excerpt? Describe the tempo of this excerpt. What is the time signature of this excerpt?

Your test may also feature longer 2-3 mark questions e.g. Identify 3 features of rhythm or instrumentation used in this excerpt typical of reggae.

We strongly recommend that you use past Google Form homework tasks still available on Google Classroom to help you revise - they are all there under the genre headings in Google Classroom ready for you!

In addition, here is a short PowerPoint outlining musical features that you will need to be able to identify:
