HELP! Anyone Done GCSE Music?

[iPsy]

Alright, I am just starting My GCSE Music course, and It's sounding pretty..... SCARY!, I have to perform the clarinet in front of 200 people at a formal event and I have to listen to loads of classical music!, Anyone else done GCSE Music? Do you have any tips or anything???

 

 

THANKS! :D

i've done standard grade music which i think is the same as GCSE in England.

 

you do have to listen to some classical music and learn concepts such as trill's and mordents (if you know what they are you're half way their :laugh3:...not really)

 

i've sang and done guitar together at about 4 concerts resulting in about 800 people having heard me sing , mostly on my own :stunned:

 

you will be nervous at first but as long as you practise alot u'll be fine......and i know this is a cliche music thing but it is true ..as soon as you are onstage the butterlies in your stomach turn into energy (i just imagined butterflies drinking lucosade :laugh3:

 

im now doing advanced higher which is two levels above GCSE i think :D

 

you'll do fine :D as long as your up for it :D

Hahaha, I don't know!, Well done on passing and stuff, was it hard or a breeze??? Do you have to put a lot of work in?:thinking:

[Glossal Fragster]

well yeah ya do.....for my standard grade i found it quite easy...it was just the listening and theory parts i found hard (only because we basically NEVER had a lesson on it...a few in the weeks before the exam :( )

 

higher was harder because i had my back operation thing and was off school for about 3 months....yet i tried as hard as i could and passed :D

 

so many people failed that i am the only one doing that level in my school! :shocked2:
