Duration

Grade examinationsStructureTrinity Guildhall’s practical examination grades are numbered from 1 to 8 in increasing order of difficulty.

Pieces

Candidates play three pieces, chosen from the published lists.

Technical Work

All candidates play a Lip Flexibility Exercise, after which they may choose to play either Scales &Arpeggios or Exercises.

Supporting tests

For brass examinations there are two further tests:

Up to and including Grade 5, candidates may choose any two tests from:

AuralSight Reading [including transposition for french horn from Grade 4 and trumpet from Grade 6]ImprovisationMusical Knowledge

In Grades 6, 7 and 8, Test 1 must be Sight Reading. For Test 2 there is a choice between Aural andImprovisation.

At the examination, candidates should note on the appointment slip which test(s) have been chosen.

Order of examination

Pieces will normally be asked before scales, with accompanied pieces first. Candidates wishing to presenttheir examination in any other order may do so, but must write their preferred sequence on the back ofthe appointment slip and point it out to the examiner at the start of the examination. This choice doesnot extend to cases where the syllabus stipulates the location of any item, e.g. Own Composition.

Technical Work

The purpose of this section of the examination is to encourage the development of the necessarytechnical skills for the performance of pieces. Candidates should aim for a full and rounded tone overthe whole range, with accurate playing at an appropriate and even pace. Higher marks are given forattention to musical shaping, and the promptness and confidence of delivery.

The requirements for each grade are given in the main body of the syllabus.

All scales and arpeggios must be performed ascending and descending (unless otherwise stated). Abreath may be taken at the top of the scale/arpeggio at the candidate’s discretion.

Playing from memory

Scales and arpeggios must be performed from memory. The exercises may be played either frommemory or using the printed music. Candidates should note, however, that no extra marks will beawarded for performing from memory in the examination.

Minor scales

Up to and including Grade 2, candidates may choose to play either harmonic or melodic or natural minorscales. In Grades 3, 4 and 5 candidates have a choice of harmonic or melodic and in Grades 6, 7 and 8both harmonic and melodic minors must be prepared.

Crabwise scales

The syllabus will give the starting note and the candidate should cover all twelve major keys by raisingthe keynote by a semitone on the completion of each scale (e.g. one octave of G major ascendingfollowed by one octave of Ab major descending, followed by one octave of A major ascending, etc.).Candidates may breathe wherever appropriate.

Tempi for scales and arpeggios

Scales and arpeggios should be prepared at a consistent speed within the tempo range specifiedappropriate to the instrument.

Grade 1 = 46–60

Grade 2 = 50–66

Grade 3 = 54–72

Grade 4 = 60–104

Grade 5 = 66–112

Grade 6 = 72–120

Grade 7 = 80–126

Grade 8 = 88–132

Ranges for scales and arpeggios (written pitch)

The ranges given encompass all treble clef technical work set. Pieces may occasionally include isolatedand manageable notes outside this range but the majority of music will remain comfortably within it.Trombone ranges are similar, but may differ slightly. Bass clef ranges should be adjusted as appropriate.

Articulation for scales and arpeggios

The various articulation patterns for scales and arpeggios in this syllabus are given on the next page.Scales, arpeggios and exercises for all brass instruments are published by Trinity Guildhall. See page 156 for details.

Grade examinations

Pieces

Repeats, ornaments & tempi

All da capo and dal segno instructions should be observed. Repeats of more than a few bars should beomitted unless otherwise instructed in the syllabus, or where a substantial first-time bar section wouldbe lost. Candidates should omit cadenzas in concerto movements played in graded examinations unlessinstructed otherwise in the syllabus, but cadential trills and other ornamentation appropriate to the styleof the music are encouraged at all levels, and particularly in the higher grades. Metronome marks aregiven merely as a guide to performance, and candidates should observe terms showing the tempoand/or character of the music (e.g. Lento, Allegro) in their performance. Long introductions, tuttis andendings should be sensibly truncated.

Accompanists and page-turners

Trinity Guildhall does not provide accompanists nor can the examiner act as an accompanist or page-turner. Difficult page-turns should be overcome by photocopying the relevant pages. A page-turner may assist the accompanist in Grades 6–8 examinations if absolutely necessary, but may remain in the examination room only while (s)he is needed. Candidates may use a recording of the pianoaccompaniment in examinations up to and including Grade 3. Recordings of accompaniments need notbe commercial products but must be of good CD quality and must not include the solo part; cassetterecordings are not acceptable. All examinations from Grade 4 upwards must use a live accompaniment.

Playing from memory

Candidates are free to play any or all of their pieces from memory, and to do so is likely to help withthe security of their knowledge and their ability to communicate. It is not obligatory, however, and noseparate marks are given for memorisation. Candidates who play from memory must ensure that anoriginal copy of the music performed is brought to the examination for the examiner’s reference.

Music and copies

It is strongly recommended that original copies of music needed for examinations are obtained beforean examination entry is made; allowances cannot be made for delays in obtaining music. Candidates mayuse any reputable edition of the works listed in the syllabuses; publishers’ details are given mainly forthe purpose of identifying works and also as suggestions of suitable editions. Candidates should alwaystry to obtain reliable and authoritative editions of all music, but should note that variations in worldwideavailability may occasionally be encountered; candidates are advised always to check the contents ofbooks before purchase. Publishers’ contact details are given at the end of this syllabus.

Candidates must perform from published material in the examination room; photocopies of completepieces may not be used in examinations. If candidates or accompanists perform from photocopiesunauthorised by the publisher (other than short extracts to facilitate page-turning), no marks will beawarded for that item.

Examiners of graded examinations welcome the provision of reference copies of pieces not published byTrinity Guildhall. Photocopies can legitimately be used for this purpose; any copies provided will beretained by the examiner and destroyed after the examination.

Grade examinations

Own Composition

Candidates may offer their own composition in place of a listed piece where indicated in the syllabus.This must be performed as the last of their group of pieces so that the questions on the piece mayfollow immediately afterwards.

Content

The composition should follow the specification given, and must be of a similar technical and artisticlevel to the other pieces performed. A piano accompaniment may be included, but the use of pre-recorded material or other instruments is not allowed. The piece should be substantially the candidate’sunaided work, although the teacher may offer guidance as necessary. Candidates and teachers areadvised to take note of the Levels of Achievement statements in the current Information & Regulationsbooklet when preparing own compositions. The timings given at each level should be observed carefully;credit will be lost if compositions fall appreciably short of or exceed the indicated timespan.

Notation

The complete composition must be written out in the candidate’s own hand (or be produced and printedby the candidate using a score-writing program). At Grades 1–5, the composition may be presented inany coherent form of notation. For compositions at Grades 6–8 staff notation is essential. Marks will bededucted if the notation is incomplete or technically inaccurate or if the performance varies significantlyfrom what is written. Candidates must present a (photo)copy of the piece, which the examiner will keep,with name and candidate number clearly shown.

Assessment

After the performance, the examiner will ask the candidate to explain how the piece was composed and will ask further questions about the notation and structure. Sixteen marks are awarded for theperformance and six for clarity of explanation, structure and presentation.

The specific requirements are listed below.

Composition requirements — grade by grade:

Grade Duration Requirements

1 1½–2½ minutes A piece containing sudden dynamic contrast

2 1½–2½ minutes A piece contrasting legato and staccato passages

3 1½–2½ minutes A piece which starts quietly and simply, and builds to a loud, grand climax

4 2½–3½ minutes A piece with long melodic phrases

5 2½–3½ minutes A piece containing many wide leaps

6 3½–4½ minutes A piece contrasting material in the high and low registers

7 3½–4½ minutes A piece featuring several different tuplets (within the same pulse) e.g. duplets, triplets, etc.

8 4½–5½ minutes A piece featuring a variety of instrumental effects e.g. glissandi, rapid tonguing, hand stopping, etc.

Supporting Tests

Sight ReadingSight Reading tests are set at the level of a piece prescribed approximately two grades lower than thegrade undertaken; for instance, Grade 5 candidates should be able to read at sight the level of piece setfor Grade 3 performance. Tests will follow the parameters given below. Note that the parameters arecumulative; the keys etc. used at each grade may also include any variable set for any previous grade.

Candidates will be allowed 30 seconds to study the test before they attempt it. During this time they maypractise any or all of the piece aloud. The examiner will only take account of the actual performance ofthe test.

In addition to the Sight Reading exercise, candidates taking French Horn Grades 4–8 and TrumpetGrades 5–8 must also take a transposition test, in which they play a short piece simulating an orchestralor band situation where the player is given a part for a differently pitched instrument. The candidate willbe given this exercise as an additional unprepared test, following on from the sight reading and with thesame 30 seconds of study time. All the original tests will be written in C major. The keys that thecandidate must transpose to are as follows:

AuralFour tests are given for each grade (two for Grade 8), designed to develop the candidate’s abilities in thefields of musical perception, discrimination, memory, understanding, analysis and response. The tests,which are all based on the same example to encourage a deepening of knowledge, are carefully gradedfrom basic skills to more advanced understanding.

N.B. Tests for Initial and Grade 1 are all in major keys; Grades 2–5 and 8 may be in major or minor. Grade 6tests are major and Grade 7 are minor. Tests involving printed copies given to candidates will be providedin treble clef for most instruments, and in bass or alto clef for instruments normally reading those clefs.

Initial

1. To sing, hum or whistle the final note of a 4-bar melody in 2 time, played with the final note omitted. The note should be sung in strict time. The key chord will be sounded before the melody is played. In all circumstances this note will be the tonic.

2. To clap back the rhythm of the melody after hearing it played twice again.

3. To identify, after another hearing, whether the melody was played mainly legato or staccato.

4. To identify, after hearing again three consecutive notes from the melody, which of the three was the highest or lowest.

Grade 1

1. i) To clap back the rhythm of a four bar melody in 2 or 3 time, played twice;

ii) to state the time signature.

2. To state, after hearing the melody again, whether the last note was higher, lower or the same as thefirst note.

3. To state, after hearing the melody again, whether the melody was played mainly legato or staccato.

4. To listen to the melody played twice more, first as originally heard and then with a change to thepitch at one point, and indicate where the change occurs. Candidates will not be required to describethe change.

Grade 2

1. To listen once to a short melody in 2 or 3 and to indicate a sense of the pulse and time signatureduring a second playing. Candidates should respond by either conducting clearly, using a simple,conventional, beat-shape or alternatively by other methods, provided the strong beats are indicateddistinctly. The examiner will bring the candidate in at the start of the second playing.

2. To state, after hearing the melody again, whether the last note was higher, lower or the same as the first note.

3. To listen to the complete melody again and to state,

i) whether it was in a major or minor key;

ii) the dynamic level at the start and how it changed during the piece. Crescendo and diminuendomay be included.

Grade 3

1. To listen once to a short melody in 3 or 4 and to indicate a sense of the pulse and time signature

during a second playing. Candidates should respond by either conducting clearly, using a simple,

conventional, beat-shape or alternatively by other methods, provided the strong beats are indicated

distinctly. The candidate may begin right at the start, or can join in once the melody is under way.

2. To identify the interval formed by the first two notes of the melody, played from low to high and held

as a sounding interval as a major second, minor third, major third, perfect fourth or perfect fifth.

(All diatonic, from within the key.) Candidates may sing (or hum) the notes before answering.

3. To identify a triad played by the examiner as being either major or minor. The notes will be

sounded together.

4. A printed copy of the melody will be handed to the candidate. The examiner will then play the

original followed by a version (played twice) containing one change of pitch or rhythm. The

candidate will be invited to indicate the bar in which the change occurred in the rhythm or melody.

Grade 4

1. To listen once to a short melody in 4 or 6 with a simple accompaniment and to indicate a sense

of the pulse and time signature during a second playing. Candidates should respond by either

conducting clearly, using a simple, conventional, beat-shape or alternatively by other methods,

provided the strong beats are indicated distinctly.

2. To identify the interval formed by the first two notes of the melody, played consecutively, as:

a unison a perfect fourth

a minor second a perfect fifth

a major second a minor sixth

a minor third a major sixth

a major third

Candidates may sing or hum the notes before answering.

3. To listen to the piece again and to identify the cadence at the end as being either perfect

or imperfect.

4. A printed copy of the melody line only will be handed to the candidate. The examiner will then

play this, followed by a version (played twice) containing two changes, one of pitch and one of

rhythm. The candidate will be invited to indicate the bars in which the changes occurred and to

describe them.

Grade 5

1. To listen twice to a short piece of music in 2, 3 or 6 played twice, and state:

i) the time signature;

ii) if it began in the major or minor;

Improvisation

The improvisation tests explore the candidate’s ability to respond creatively to an aural/visual stimulusoffered by the examiner, usually as a rhythmic or melodic cell. The tasks undertaken develop from simplerecognition, assimilation and invention to modulation, extension and other techniques.

In every case the stimulus has been designed to allow a genuinely free creative improvisation and toavoid the implication of a ‘mirror image’ response. At all grades the stimuli seek to provide a wide rangeof improvisatory possibilities, whilst avoiding excessive complication within themselves. The greatestcredit will be given for candidates who most effectively incorporate elements of the stimulus into theirimprovisation, showing creativity and good instrumental knowledge and ability.

Outline and Test Parameters

According to the candidate’s choice, the examiner will tap the rhythm or play the pitches or chords onthe piano, and will also give a notated copy of the relevant test to the candidate which the candidate canrefer to throughout the test. In this way both auditory and visual learners will be assisted to producetheir best possible response.

Format

Candidates may select any one of the following types of test:

either melodic: based on a series of pitches

or rhythmic: based on a rhythmic idea

or chordal: based on a set of chord symbols.

The parameters are given in the chart overleaf.

Melodic Tests

The examiner will give the candidate a copy of a series of written pitches and will play it through twicewith each pitch lasting for about 2 seconds. The candidate will play the pitches back to the examiner, andthen has 30 seconds to prepare a short phrase incorporating these pitches, which is then performed.The candidate may play during the preparation time.

Rhythmic Tests

The examiner will give the candidate a written version of an opening rhythm and then play it twice.Candidates will then repeat it on their instrument using one pitch. They then have 30 seconds to developa piece of music based on this rhythm and then adding melodic material as appropriate. Instrumentalrange used should reflect the parameters for melodic tests in the chart overleaf.

Chordal Tests

The examiner will give the candidate a copy of a 2-stave piano score containing chords written outwithout a time signature (with bar lines) and chord symbols printed above each chord. The examiner willplay this through twice, establishing a moderate pulse with each chord played as 4 crotchets per bar (or2 crotchets where more than one chord appears in a bar). The candidate then has 30 seconds (60seconds for Grades 6 to 8) in which to prepare a short improvisation over the given chords. Candidatescan choose to use the tempo and time signature that the examiner played, or to request a quicker orslower tempo and a 3, 4 or compound ‘feel’ if they prefer.

The examiner will then play the chords as before, while the candidate improvises above them. Thephrase may be repeated several times, depending on length and speed, until the improvisation reachesa natural conclusion.

Musical Knowledge (Initial to Grade 5 only)

These questions test the candidate’s understanding of their chosen pieces, the context of theirperformance and their knowledge of their instrument and its technical demands, including best practicefor rehearsal and performance.

Five questions, each worth 2 marks, will normally be asked. Questions will include discussions on most ofthe areas mentioned below, but not all parameters will be relevant to all disciplines and pieces, andexaminers will select questions as appropriate. Candidates must ensure that copies are not so heavilyannotated that a reasonable range of questions for the grade is precluded.

For melody line instrumentalists, questions will be based only on the instrumental line, and not on theaccompaniment.

It is the intention that candidates demonstrate their knowledge by reference to the printed score, ratherthan by reproducing previously prepared answers. If annotations to the printed score are so extensive asto preclude a reasonable range of questions, the report may be referred to Head Office for review or theexaminer may award no marks for the section.

Initial

1. The pitch names, and durations of any notes (excluding those with leger lines except middle C) in thepieces played.

2. To identify, but not to explain clefs, stave, bar lines and key/time signatures in the pieces played.

3. Very simple musical terms and signs in the pieces, such as , ‘repeat’, f and p.

4. Questions about the connection between the titles of the pieces and the music played (e.g. what is aMinuet? Why is this piece called ‘Squabble’?)

Grade 1

Instruments

Trumpet/Cornet/Flugel Horn

Candidates must enter for an examination in either Trumpet (subject code TPT) or Cornet (subject codeCOR) or Flugel Horn (subject code FLG). This must be clearly marked on the entry form. From Grade 3onwards, candidates may offer up to one piece on another instrument as appropriate — e.g. cornet,flugel horn or piccolo trumpet in a Trumpet examination — but technical work and all supporting testsmust be performed on the instrument for which the entry was made.

Euphonium/Baritone

The euphonium/baritone syllabus is designed for players reading either treble or bass clef. Scales maybe presented in either clef. Pieces may be in either clef transposed if necessary. Where repertoire is notpublished in the appropriate clef, a manuscript transposition may be used. The pianist should play fromthe published original.

Trombone

The trombone syllabus is designed for players reading either treble or bass clef. Scales may bepresented in either clef. Pieces may be in either clef transposed if necessary. Where repertoire is notpublished in the appropriate clef, a manuscript transposition may be used. The pianist should play fromthe published original.

Bass Trombone

The bass trombone syllabus is designed for players with a single trigger instrument at Grades 6 and 7,but at Grade 8 much of the repertoire and technical work may include low B naturals.

Tuba/Eb Bass/Bb Bass

The tuba syllabus is designed for Eb tuba players, reading in either treble or bass clef. All the pieces upto Grade 5 should be accessible on a three valve instrument. From Grade 6, players without a 4th valvewill find the choice of repertoire more limited.

Scales may be presented in either clef. Pieces may be in either clef, or transposed if necessary. Whererepertoire is not published in the appropriate clef, a manuscript transposition may be used. Either thepianist or the soloist should play from the published original.

Bb bass players may use the same repertoire, transposing either solo or piano parts as necessary, orrepertoire may be selected from the euphonium syllabus. They should follow the Eb tuba treble clefscale lists.

Players on F and C tubas may transpose either solo or piano parts as appropriate. Either the pianist orsoloist should play from the published original. Scale requirements for F, C and Bb tubas reading in bassclef are downloadable from the website www.trinityguildhall.co.uk
