GCSE Music – Revision – Sonority (Instrument Recognition)

(2)
Sonority – Instrument Recognition Questions The GCSE Music Specification includes many terms that students need to know, and be able to identify, but which aren’t covered by many of the styles of music studied. Using only music from Popular Music, this revision resource brings together every instrument, voice and ensemble (apart from “basso continuo”, for obvious reasons!) from the sub-menu “Sonority”, ie instruments, voices, and ensembles. In order to be accessible to students who really struggle with such things, there are 50 simple, 1-mark questions, which ask students to identify an instrument, voice type, or ensemble. In addition, there is also a bonus question alongside every simple question, for students who find such things easier – so 100 questions in total! So that the first group of students don’t feel like they’re underachieving, there are two different PDFs: one with just the 50 simple questions, and one with the bonus questions as well, so teachers can choose which to give their students. The questions are in ten sections: Strings Woodwind Brass Percussion Keyboards Rock and Pop Indian Voices Miscellaneous Ensembles The resource comes with a link to FREE audio, running for 1h15’, either as one file or ten separate files: perfect for a revision lesson, or as homework. The extracts cover a wide range of Popular Music, and features music by the likes of Eva Cassidy, Led Zeppelin, Björk, Yes, Primus, Tanita Tikaram, The Meters, Minnie Riperton, Tom Waits, Genesis, Jamiroquai, Badly Drawn Boy, Freak Power, Blood, Sweat & Tears, and The Cure! The bundle includes the full paper and mark scheme, plus two PDFs of questions (50, or 100), and mark scheme separately, in case you want to set it remotely.

A LEVEL MUSIC TRANSPOSING INSTRUMENTS and TRANSPOSITION

(1)
This resource is suitable for AS and A Level Music and Grade 4 and 5 ABRSM Theory. This is a whole topic in terms of content and activities. It is fully supported by a 25-slide PowerPoint and 2 worksheets, all with detailed answers. This resource pack could be used for either revision or content delivery. By the end of worksheet 1, students will be confident in transcribing music from one clef to another so that it sounds at the same pitch. The clefs covered are: Treble; Alto; Tenor; Bass. By the end of the topic, students should be equipped with the skills, techniques, and experience to transpose to concert pitch from written pitch (and vice-versa) for instruments in C that transpose at the octave, and for all transposing instruments in Bb, A, G, F, and Eb. There are more than 30 exercises – all with detailed answers on a PDF document, and as part of a handy PowerPoint presentation (which includes Objectives, differentiated Outcomes) making delivery of the content a breeze. Not only are transposition skills invaluable for potential exam questions, they are essential to correctly analysing orchestral music as part of any high level music course. Students also benefit from these skills in the area of composition: developing knowledge of instruments and how they work. I really hope that you will enjoy my resources and find them useful. I pride myself on the quality of the resources and I welcome feedback and enquiries from all of my colleague-customers throughout the world. I can be contacted directly at rainynightmusic@hotmail.com and I would be delighted to hear from you. Thank you for considering this resource for your classroom.
