Discussion

Candidates will be expected to answer questions on all areas covered by the Discussion sections in Grades 1–7. This includes a full knowledge of the snare drum and its component parts; head and snare replacement and tensioning; alternative materials for heads, snares and shells; drum sizes; and the history of the snare drum. Candidates may also be asked questions about the wider musical uses and applications of the instrument, including military and orchestral contexts, and should be able to cite examples of relevant repertoire. Additionally, a full knowledge and understanding of any matters arising from the rhythms, notation or playing techniques in the pieces performed will be expected.

Sight Reading

The candidate will be asked to play a short piece of a standard appropriate to the grade. Two examples are given in the handbook. Up to one minute’s preparation time will be allowed to study the test before playing, during which the candidate may try parts of the test if they wish.

Aural Tests

  • To repeat a rhythmic phrase played twice on the snare drum by the examiner.
  • To vocalise phonetically note values played twice on the snare drum by the examiner, and to identify the note values after a further playing. The pulse and time signature will be given.
  • To state the time signature of a rhythmic phrase played twice on the snare drum by the examiner. The pulse will be given
  • The candidate will be given a copy of three notated examples. The examiner will then play one of the examples twice on the snare drum. The candidate should then state which one has been played.
