Yr 12 Music
This course builds on the knowledge and skills of Level 1 Music, incorporating seven different Achievement Standards which are studied concurrently throughout the year. There continues to be an emphasis on performance skills and it is expected that students are currently receiving tuition in an instrument or in voice, either through the College or privately.
Achievement Objectives Level 6, 7 & 8 (Yr 11, 12 & 13)
Students will:
- Research and analyse music from a range of styles and genre, in relation to contexts and reflect on the influence of music in their own lives.
- Integrate aural, practical and theoretical skills in analyzing, applying and evaluating expressive features and conventions of music.
- Create, structure, refine and represent compositions and arrangements and reflect on the composition process.
- Plan, rehearse, present, record, evaluate and refine individual and group performances of music and reflect on music performances.
