This course would appeal especially to those students who enjoy listening to different types of music and enjoy playing a musical instrument or singing. Music GCSE is a practically based course but also involves a certain amount of theory and history. It is divided into four sections: ¯ Performance 25% ¯ Composition 25% ¯ Listening 25% ¯ Set Assignment 25% This is a composition based on one of the areas of study and set by the board in the final term. It must have a realisation and includes an exam evaluation. The set areas of study for the new course include popular song, dance music, film music, music for special events and orchestral landmarks.
