These components include a Question Paper – a written examination based on listening to excerpts of music ; Composing Assignment – submission of a completed composition, plus a composing review; Performance – Instrument 1 - a live performance marked by a visiting assessor; Performance – Instrument 2 - a live performance marked by a visiting assessor.

The BrightRED Study Guide will enable students to develop a comprehensive understanding of the different styles of music, playing techniques and build their confidence for the extenal assessed components.

There will be extra content, activities, tests, video links and more available on our multi-awarding learning platform, the BrightRED Digital Zone.
