What you need to do

Look at the music the examiner gives you.

Listen again, following the music and listening carefully for the change.

Then point to the bar where you hear the change

OR

say the number of the bar with the change:

BAR 1, BAR 2, BAR 3 or BAR 4

Hints and tips

  • The melody is 4 bars long and the bars are numbered
  • You will hear a change to the:

              pitch if a note is played higher or lower

              OR

              rhythm if some of the notes are played longer or shorter

  • You can either:

              point to the bar which has the change

              OR

              say the number of the bar which has the change

  • You then need to say if it was a change in pitch or rhythm

              If you hear a note played higher or lower say PITCH

              If you hear some of the notes played longer or shorter say RHYTHM
