MUSIC EXAMS

music-exams.png

Most music schools prepare students to take instrumental examinations although this is not obligatory. Music exams are externally provided assessments where candidates are obliged to prepare a set number of pieces and technical challenges/skills in a performance setting.

​

Music instrument exams are graded in difficulty from 1 to 8, and the level that the student wishes to take is dependent on their skill level. Exams in music do not need to be taken consecutively, and it is possible for a student at an advanced level to take just one exam - grade 8.

Flute Music Notes

  • Associated Board of the Royal Schools of Music (UK)

​

All music exams require the payment of an exam entry fee, and the choice of examination body is dependent upon agreement between the tutor/student and South Dublin Music.
