Improve your aural! Grades 7-8
«
The fun and varied activities include writing down what is heard (e.g. the root, third or fifth at the start/end of a phrase), matching the style and period of music, filling in the missing note from a phase, sight-singing a melody over an accompaniment and much more….The explanations for each activity are concise, and the tracks have been thoughtfully designed to allow students to succeed in each activity such as singing the lower of two and three-part phrases….This is an extremely beneficial aural workout for the intermediate musician and beyond!
Stringendo Magazine, April 2010
The listening activities are exercises related to the type of question you’ll be asked in the exam, and the practice exercises give you the opportunity to try some mock examination questions. You can see if you were correct by downloading the answers from Faber’s website.
The aural section in an ABRSM exam may only contribute a total of 18 marks to your exam score, but, as Paul Harris puts it, a more important reason for devoting more time to your aural development is that it will probably help you ‘more than any other single musical skill to improve as an all-round musician’.Pianist Magazine, December 2009
After sampling the various exercises in the workbooks..... I was left wishing that I had had a resource like this when I was struggling with the aural part of my Grade exams. It’s always been one of my bugbears in music teaching that aural is left to the last minute and that when it is finally ‘taught’, the teacher simply runs through the sample tests. Now at last the student has a patient teacher and can go over individual teats as wished….Brilliant and totally recommended.
