This is a selection of resources to support the understanding and wider concepts of Area of Study 1: Musical Forms and Devices within the Western Classical Tradition. The preview gives very little away... It has 75 slides covering: Baroque, Classical and Romantic Styles as well as composers and instrument development within historical contexts. Each compositional period covers key inventions / developments to place this securely in the mind of the learner as well as specific compositional devices. This can be used as a stand alone student support booklet to ensure thorough coverage and wider understanding for AOS1 Eduqas, GCSE Music. However, it would work equally well as a set of separate research / listening activity homework. Additionally these could be set as starter / plenary or even cover work. Included here are 50 extensive score and listening references with research and listening activities. This is really going to keep everyone busy!
