Brass Syllabus 2013–2014

IntroductionI am delighted to introduce this syllabus containing details of Grade and Certificate exams for brass instruments valid from 1 January 2013 to 31 December 2014.

Trinity College London (‘Trinity’) syllabuses have gained international acclaim for their innovative mark schemes, breadth of repertoire and flexibility of choice.

Performing is at the heart of Trinity Grade exams, which is key to their continued success around the world. Certificate exams offer an alternative to Grade assessments; designed as mini-recitals, they place increased emphasis on performance and presentation.

Further information on all our exams including full details of our assessment criteria and additional supporting materials for teachers and candidates can be found on www.trinitycollege.co.uk/music ('our website'). Please check our website regularly for any updates or corrections.

We hope you enjoy exploring the music on offer in this syllabus, and wish you every success in your exams and wider music-making.

Nicholas KeyworthChief Examiner for Music

For essential information about our entry and exam requirements, the conduct of our exams, as well as our processes and procedures, please read our Information & Regulations booklet or visit www.trinitycollege.co.uk/essentialinformation

Trinity accepts entries for its exams on condition that candidates conform to the requirements of the appropriate current syllabus. Any amendments to the requirements will be published and advertised via our website and in subsequent printed syllabuses.

Trinity College London is an awarding body recognised by the Office of Qualifications and Examinations Regulation (Ofqual) in England, the Welsh Government (WG), and the Northern Ireland Council for the Curriculum Examinations and Assessment (CCEA). Trinity’s qualifications are regulated by these authorities within the Qualifications and Credit Framework (QCF). Various arrangements are in place with governmental education authorities worldwide.

4

Range of qualificationsTrinity qualifications offer a variety of routes through which candidates can progress in their musical studies. Candidates may enter Grades, Certificates or any combination of the two, and need not pass every preceding level to progress on to the next. Each level is supported by the Theory syllabus and exams that develop a greater understanding of music and notation.

No theory qualifications or other prerequisites are required in order to enter for Trinity’s Grade and Certificates exams in music.

Beyond Grade 8, candidates should consider Trinity’s suite of Diploma exams at ATCL, LTCL and FTCL levels offering qualifications in performance, teaching, theory and composition. Rock & Pop exams are also available for bass, drums, guitar, keyboards and vocals as well as jazz exams for flute, clarinet and saxophone.

For more information on assessment and the criteria examiners use to mark the exams visit our website.

Length of the examExams are designed to allow sufficient time for setting up and tuning in the exam room and performing all the necessary components. However, candidates are expected to arrive at least 15 minutes before the start time to allow for warming up the instrument and any other appropriate preparation.

AssessmentComments and marks are given for each section of the exam. It is not necessary to pass each section of the exam to achieve an overall pass. Pieces are assessed by three distinct components:

Initial and Grade exams Certificate exams

Grade 6 23

Grade 7 23

Grade 8 28 Advanced 25–30 33

Certificate exams have a required overall timing for the chosen programme. Candidates should be aware that over-/under-running by more than 10% will result in marks being deducted.

About the exams

7

During the examCandidates should note that:

� they may play or sing a few notes before the exam starts to get used to the acoustics of the room

� examiners may choose to curtail any performance once they have formed a judgement.

Instruments and accessories

� The standard exam room will be equipped with a tuned piano, an adjustable stool and a music stand.

� Trinity will not accept any liability in the event of any candidate’s property being lost, stolen or damaged either while in transit to and from the exam centre or at any time during the exam itself.

Special circumstances

� When the exam is underway, no external person other than the examiner and the candidate (and accompanist and/or page turner if necessary) is allowed inside the exam room except in special cases such as with an interpreter, facilitator, or assistant for a candidate with special educational needs. Trinity’s London office must approve such arrangements in writing before an entry is made.

� No photography or unauthorised audio or video recording is permitted during the exam except by Trinity examiners for moderation and/or training purposes.

� All exams are assessed on the basis of the performance given on the day of the exam, without regard to any external circumstances.

Syllabus infringements

Any syllabus infringements (e.g. performing an incorrect item) may be reported directly to Trinity’s London office by the examiner. Exam reports may be withheld until the outcome of any referred exam has been considered by Trinity.

About the exams

8

PiecesMusical instructions

� All pieces should be prepared in full unless otherwise stated.

� Repeats of more than a few bars should not be played unless instructed otherwise in the syllabus or exam publications.

� All da capo and dal segno instructions should be observed, as should 1st and 2nd time bars where repeats are included.

� Cadenzas should be omitted unless instructed otherwise in the syllabus.

� Long introductions, tuttis and endings should be shortened as appropriate.

� Trills and other appropriate ornamentation are expected, particularly in the higher grades.

� All tempo and performance markings should be observed (e.g. Allegro, rall., crescendo). Metronome marks are given as a guide.

Page turners and accompaniments

� Candidates are responsible for providing their own accompanists. Solo performances of accompanied pieces are not permitted.

� Difficult page turns should be overcome by photocopying the relevant pages. Page turners may assist the accompanist in Grade 6–8 exams.

� Accompanists and page turners may only remain in the exam room when needed.

� Candidates may use a backing track or recording of the piano accompaniment in exams up to and including Grade 3. Recordings of accompaniments need not be commercial products but must always be of a good quality and not include the solo part.

� Candidates are responsible for providing and operating their own playback equipment where necessary. This must be able to produce a good sound quality with adequate volume. Contact should be made with the centre well in advance to confirm the arrangements (power supply, equipment insurance, etc.). In all cases, arrangements must be agreed with the Trinity Local Area Representative.

Playing from memory

Candidates may choose to perform any or all of their pieces from memory, which may improve note security and confidence. However, no separate or additional marks are given specifically for memorisation.

Music and copies

� Candidates must bring an original copy (or an authorised download) of all music performed into the exam room, even if they are performing from memory. Failure to do so may result in no marks being awarded for that piece.

� Handwritten or typeset copies may be used, provided an original copy is also present.

� Sheet music can also be purchased or downloaded digitally. In this case, candidates should bring proof of purchase or write the web address on top of the music for the examiner’s reference.

� Guidelines regarding the legitimacy of all forms of sheet music can be obtained from the UK Music Publishers Association’s Code of Fair Practice, available at www.mpaonline.org.uk

About the exams

9

� Candidates for graded exams are encouraged to bring photocopies of pieces not published by Trinity to their exam as reference copies for the examiner, although no marks will be lost for not doing so. Photocopies can legitimately be used for this purpose, providing an original copy of the music is also in the room.

� Candidates for Certificate exams must always bring copies of the music they are playing for the examiner.

� Any photocopies will be retained by the examiner and destroyed after the exam.

Editions

Recommended editions are listed in the syllabus. Candidates are free to perform from any other edition, provided that it has not been shortened or otherwise simplified. When a particular edition must be used this is indicated in the syllabus. Product codes for publications have been included where possible.

Special educational needsRequests for provision for special educational needs

Trinity aims to make its exams as accessible as possible. In addition, Trinity adopts the guidelines of the UK’s regulatory authorities and those of the Joint Council for Qualifications.

Trinity can make reasonable adjustments to the exam and its procedures according to an individual’s special educational needs if deemed appropriate. Each candidate will always be assessed to the same standard as every other candidate.

Applying for provision for special educational needs

A special educational needs provision application form is available from our website or from your Trinity Local Area Representative. The form should be completed and sent with the candidate’s entry form together with evidence to support the application.

Further information of Trinity’s provision for candidates with special educational needs can be found on our website.

About the exams

About the exams

11

InstrumentsTuning

Candidates are responsible for the tuning of their instruments. Up to and including Grade 5 the teacher or accompanist may assist with tuning. From Grade 6, candidates are expected to tune or adjust their instrument without assistance.

Trumpet/Cornet/Flugel Horn

From Grade 3, candidates may offer up to one piece on another instrument — e.g. cornet, flugel horn or piccolo trumpet in a trumpet exam — but technical work and supporting tests must be performed on the instrument for which the entry was made.

Euphonium/Baritone/Trombone

The euphonium/baritone/trombone syllabus is designed for players reading either treble or bass clef. Scales may be presented in either clef. Pieces may be transposed. An Eb Alto Trombone may be used only for Grades 1 and 2. Where the music is not published in the appropriate clef or key, a transposition may be used.

Bass Trombone

The bass trombone syllabus is designed for players with a single trigger instrument at Grades 6 and 7, but at Grade 8 much of the repertoire and technical work may include low B naturals.

Tuba/Eb Bass/Bb Bass

The tuba syllabus is designed for Eb tuba players, reading in either treble or bass clef. All the pieces up to Grade 5 should be playable on a three-valve instrument. From Grade 6, most of the pieces are playable on a four-valve instrument.

Scales may be presented in either clef. Pieces may be in either clef, or transposed if necessary. Where the music is not published in the appropriate clef, a transposition may be used.

Bb bass players may use the same repertoire, transposing either solo or piano parts as necessary, or repertoire may be selected from the euphonium syllabus. They should follow the Eb tuba treble clef scale lists.

Players on F and C tubas may transpose either solo or piano parts as appropriate. Scale requirements for F, C and Bb tubas reading in bass clef are downloadable from our website.

About the exams

12

Technical WorkThis section of the exam encourages the development of appropriate technical skills. Candidates should aim for accuracy at an appropriate tempo with even control of rhythm and tone. Higher marks are given for attention to musical shaping, and the promptness and confidence of delivery.

Candidates can choose between the following two options:

either Scales and Arpeggios

� All scales and arpeggios to be performed from memory.

� All scales and arpeggios to be performed ascending then descending. A breath may be taken at the top of the scale/arpeggio.

or Exercises

� Exercises may be played either from memory or using the printed music.

� Where there is a choice, the candidates should prepare three exercises and write these on the appointment form.

� The candidate should play the first one written down first.

� The examiner will choose one of the others so only two exercises will be heard.

Tempi for scales and arpeggios

A minimum pace is required, increasing gradually grade by grade.

Grade Scales & arpeggios

Grade 1 q = 46–60

Grade 2 q = 50–66

Grade 3 q = 54–72

Grade 4 q = 60–104

Grade 5 q = 66–112

Grade 6 q = 72–120

Grade 7 q = 80–126

Grade 8 q = 88–132

Support for preparing Scales and Arpeggios

Trinity publishes books of scales and arpeggios for all brass instruments which are available to purchase. Articulation patterns and ranges for scales and arpeggios are also available free from our website.

About the exams

13

Supporting TestsAll candidates of graded exams prepare two supporting tests for their exam; this allows candidates to select supporting tests that draw on their strengths and interests. Trinity provides additional support and resources for teaching and learning, please visit our website for more information.

Sight ReadingSight Reading tests are set at the level of a piece prescribed approximately two grades lower than the grade undertaken; for instance, Grade 5 candidates will be given a piece of about Grade 3 level.

Candidates will be allowed 30 seconds to study the test before they attempt it. During this time they may practise and try out the music. The examiner will then invite the candidate to perform the test for assessment.

Examples of Sight Reading tests can be found in Trinity’s Sound at Sight series available from your local music retailer or from www.trinitycollege.co.uk/onlinestore

About the exams

18

ImprovisationThis test explores the candidate’s ability to respond fluently, coherently and creatively to a musical stimulus.

� There are three possible types of stimulus a candidate can use in the exam as the starting point for their improvisation:

– Melodic: based on a series of pitches

– Rhythmic: based on a rhythmic idea

– Chordal: based on a set of chord symbols.

� Candidates indicate their choice of stimulus on the appointment form.

� In the exam the examiner will present the candidate with the notated stimulus. The examiner will then play the stimulus twice and then invite the candidate to play it back; this is to ensure the candidate has understood the stimulus.

� For Initial–Grade 5, candidates will be given 30 seconds’ preparation time.

� For Grades 6–8, candidates will be given 60 seconds’ preparation time.

� During this time they may practise their response. The examiner will then invite the candidate to perform the test for assessment.

� There are two possible ways of using the chordal stimulus:

– Unaccompanied: the candidate will be invited to give a solo performance.

– Accompanied by the examiner: the examiner will play through the chord sequence on a loop while the candidate improvises a melodic line above. The candidate may give instructions to the examiner regarding performance directions, e.g. tempo and style.

� In all cases the stimulus is just a starting point for the improvisation. Candidates should therefore develop a response that includes melodic, rhythmic and harmonic interest as appropriate for their instrument.

� Good responses may also include articulation and dynamic interest and be idiomatic of the voice or instrument.

� We provide further guidance and examples of responses on our website.

� The parameters are given in the chart on page 19. — —

About the exams

Musical Knowledge (Initial–Grade 5 only)The examiner will ask candidates five questions in the exam, which test their understanding of the pieces played, their knowledge of the notation and their instrument.

The examiner will first ask candidates to choose their favourite piece from the ones performed in the exam and will then ask some of the questions on that piece. The examiner will then choose one of the other pieces performed to complete the questions.

The printed score should be free of annotations except for essential markings such as fingerings, breath marks, etc. as appropriate. The examiner will usually point to part of the score when asking the questions.

Sample questions and answers are included in the table below:

Certificate exams

Solo Certificate exams

� In Solo Certificate exams candidates can create their own programme to meet the required programme duration from:

– The pieces listed on our website.

– The remainder of the programme can be own choice or own composition.

� Any own choice or own compositions must be of a similar technical and musical level of demand as the listed pieces for that certificate. More information can be found on our website.

� Trinity does not pre-approve any own-choice repertoire.

Group and Ensemble Certificate exams

� These are available for two or more candidates and offer opportunities for musical interaction and engagement with other musicians.

� No repertoire or song lists are provided for group and ensemble exams except in Rock & Pop exams.

� Each part of the repertoire may be played by one player, as in chamber music, or by multiple performers.

� Players may change instruments between pieces.

� The ensemble must be given a name (e.g. ‘The Proctor Quintet’), which will be printed on the report form and certificates.

� One written report will be issued for each ensemble. Each member will receive a certificate if the exam is passed.

� A candidate’s teacher may not take part in an ensemble exam except as a conductor.

Presentation Skills

This is an assessed item in all Certificate exams, which should be approached as if it were a public recital. Consideration will be given to the following areas:

� Stagecraft — the candidate’s performance will be viewed as a whole from their entry into the exam room until their exit.

� Programme notes — candidates should present neatly produced programme notes. These could be in a folded A4 booklet and should include the following items:

– Date, time and place of the recital.

– Names of those involved.

– Titles, composers and a brief description of each piece.

– Brief biography of the candidate.

� Durations — each piece should have its running time listed in the programme notes.

� Introductions — candidates should briefly introduce their recital or pieces.

� Sense of occasion — the examiner will expect the candidate and anyone else involved in the exam to be appropriately dressed and aware of a recital style of presentation.

� Programme notes and introductions may be in any language although an English translation should always be provided for the examiner.
