Following on from studying Music in the first year, A Level Music has something for you as the course essentially comprises these three elements. Your performing and composing will be worth 60%, with an analysis paper which counts for 40%. You will have opportunities for gaining more informal experience of playing in front of an audience before then, as well as at least one mock assessment. For composing, you'll write two pieces of music which last approximately 5-7 minutes: one will be based on a brief, and a specific musical style; the other will involve greater freedom of choice. In your second year, you will be given the opportunity to specialise in either performing or composing. Your analysis paper will be based on series of set pieces/ musical styles. We place a strong emphasis on group interaction in this part of the course and aim to build supportive working relationships between students.
