AQA A level Music: The Baroque Concerto - Bach Study Guides This resource consists of three Bach power points, one for each movement. The score is annotated and because each slide has an accompanying audio, the aspect of the element being discussed can be instantly heard in action.

This resource consists of five power points with annotated score and embedded audio extracts for each slide. The focus is on how the music elements are used in the set work, ‘3rd Movement from Brandenburg Concerto No.5 ’ by Bach. Dynamics and Instrumentation Rhythm, Tempo and Metre Structure and melody Texture Harmony and Tonality I tend to use the acronym DR SMITH for my study guides although went a little out of order for this particular set work as I felt the instrumentation, structure and basically navigating your way through the various loops was helpful.

This resource consists of five power points with annotated score and embedded audio extracts for each slide. The focus is on how the music elements are used in the set work, ‘Release’.

I am pretty pleased with the result as working out what is exactly going on using just the Edexcel score was quite tricky. In this resource you are provided with a listening guide for the entire piece which sets out which loops are in action at the various points in the set work. In the first slide I have also provided an overview of the Celtic, African and Electronic Dance Music performing forces with images plus links to recorded examples.
