ABRSM Viola Exam Pack 2020-23 - Initial Grade

Description

The Initial Grade is a pre-Grade 1 assessment, following the same structure, content and assessment criteria as ABRSM's existing graded music exams (3 pieces, scales, sight-reading & aural tests), designed to allow learners at the earliest stages of their musical journeys to celebrate their achievement, & is an ideal qualification for those who want a mark as well as helpful feedback.

The Viola Exam Pack for Initial Grade contains 9 pieces (3 per list) from the syllabus, the scales requirements & sample sight-reading tests. Audio recordings of the 9 pieces in each book are included with the pack, available via a download and streaming code
