GCSE music builds upon the skills gained during the lower school.  There are three sections to consider:-

1.    Listening 30%

Identifying instruments and styles of music, discussing the mood and atmosphere of a piece and demonstrating a clear understanding of musical theory.

2.    Performing 30%

This can be playing an instrument or singing.

3.    Composing 40%

These will be notated using computer software or using traditional and graphic notation.

Professional musicians visit on a regular basis and you have the opportunity to attend and perform in a variety of concerts.

 GCSE music is both fun and hard work!
