3. Enhance music reading skills | 3.1 Identify personal strengths and weaknesses in music reading to inform practice goals 3.2 Explore suitable repertoire for further development of reading skills in consultation with appropriate people |
Evidence of the ability to:
practise music-reading skills on a regular basis
perform music from written notation on at least three occasions, following the conventions of the selected music, and adjusting own performance, as required
identify ways to enhance music reading skills.
Note: If a specific volume or frequency is not stated, then evidence must be provided at least once.
To complete the unit requirements safely and effectively, the individual must:
explain conventions of written music notation and how they are used in performance
describe a range of genres and styles, and their musical forms and conventions, in written notation
describe ways to improve interpretation of notated music and music reading skills
outline issues and challenges that arise in the context of performing music from written notation, and describe how they might be addressed.
Assessment must be conducted in a safe environment where evidence gathered demonstrates consistent performance of typical activities experienced in creative arts industry environments. The assessment environment must include access to:
a selection of notated music for investigation and performance
appropriate instruments, equipment and performance space.
Assessors of this unit must satisfy the requirements for assessors in applicable vocational educational and training legislation, frameworks and/or standards.
