AS91271

4 Credits

In this activity, you will present a performance of music as a member of a group in front of an audience.

You can choose one of the following three songs to perform:

Valerie: Amy Winehouse

Come Together: The Beatles

Your contribution to the group performance must be clearly heard and seen, and you must be the only person playing your part. Your group will have between three and seven players.

You should aim to present a musically satisfying performance. Your performance should demonstrate evidence of ensemble awareness (that is, your ability to contribute to the cohesion, balance, intonation, feel, style, and accuracy of the group’s performance).

Your performance will be judged holistically. This means the assessor will consider the merits and musicality of your whole performance rather than placing too much emphasis on small inaccuracies or minor slip-ups that do not affect the fluency of your performance.

Your performance will be recorded for moderation and evaluation purposes.
