New ABRSM Piano Syllabus (2011-2012) released tomorrow!

Will — Wed, 07 Jul 2010 13:46:19 +0000

The latest piano syllabus materials will be available for dispatch from 8th July. These pieces can be used in ABRSM piano exams from January 2011 and promise to offer candidates (and their teachers) an exciting new range of repertoire.

As with last year it is also possible to purchase either the Book or CD separately or the two together from £9.95.

From January 2011, some changes will be made to the Aural Tests which will make life slightly easier for candidates as the “Spot the Difference” exercise in the Grade 1 Aurals will be simplified! ABRSM now publish sample tests along with an accompanying CD enabling students to be able to practise their aural tests in between lessons and also making life easier for their teachers.

Exam results have arrived and I’m pleased to say that I’ll have certificates to present at the next concert. Well done to all the students who took exams this time as everyone passed (two with merits). It is also time to announce the top piano points results for the Winter Term 2009:

Mollie from St. Oswald’s – 49 points
Laura from St. Oswald’s – 46 points
Alice and Charlie from Tattenhall Park – 45 points

Over half of my students have achieved the target number of points required so will be received a certificate at the beginning of next term.

Many thanks for all the cards, presents and good wishes. Have a great holiday and keep up the practise. Lessons start again on the week beginning Monday 4th January unless otherwise arranged.
