What is involved in each assessment
All performance and composition assessments fall under the Making Music category. Performing and creating music underpins the entire music programme. It may not end up being the main focus for some students, but it is present in every aspect of the music course. Students will be given the opportunity to work individually and in collaboration with other students.
