    Eligibility for Elite Athletes and Performers Scheme

    Music 1 composition

    Hey there, That sounds like a pretty cool assignment! Have you studied jazz music at school yet? If not, then perhaps do a little research into typical jazz characteristics (7th chords, particular scales etc) and select a few of those that you'd like to incorporate into your arrangement to...

    Degree Decision

    UOW are very well regarded for their psychology courses! I've studies BPsych at Usyd and absolutely loved it. It is really is a very interesting course. I guess it depends what field you'd like to work in in the future. A psychology degree can take you into many different fields, from health...

    AMEB Violin Amus

    Hey there, Good on you for taking on AMusA! You need to prepare a program that goes from between 30-40 minutes. You have to prepare at least 4 works (one from each of the Lists - A, B, C, D). It's fairly similar to the grade exams in that way. If your four pieces are shorter than the minimum 30...

    Chopin's Etudes op 10

    Op 10 No 12 is very impressive when played well and about Licentiate level. Op 10 no 4 is also very technically demanding.

    Extension music repertoire

    Hi there, I played Rachmaninov Tarantella (2 piano work), Malaguena by Lecuona and Chopin Nocturne Op 72 No 2. You don't necessarily have to have one from each period, but they should definitely differ in style. I think the two you have chosen are great, and a Chopin etude would fit in nicely...

    Music - drop it or not?

    Congrats on the fantastic marks! The music course is great, and the content and practicing is a breath of fresh air compared to other subjects. A number of things I would recommend to you. 1. Listen to as many recordings as you can of your pieces, and watch video performances of other people...

    Anybody doing Extension Music (musicology especially)??

    Hey! I really like the idea of folk music and it's influence in different periods. That way you could contrast the different eras and look at how they incorporated elements of the folk music while still remaining true to the stylistic characteristics of that period. It would really ice if you...

    Music Extension Ensemble Pieces - the nature of??

    Hey :) I would definitely suggest choosing an ensemble piece that combines the different roles you were talking about. Even though the markers won't have the music in front of them, you want to show them that you are capable of being the star performer while others accompany you, but you also...
