� Current Music Performance 2011-2015 examination criteria and sample examination material.<br />

Performance of songs<br />

� The entire ‘Music Performance: Solo, <strong>Voice</strong> – <strong>Contemporary</strong> popular’ performance examination must<br />

be performed from memory.<br />

� All works must be performed in a key appropriate to the voice and vocal development of the student.<br />

This may involve transposing the work from the original key.<br />

� Songs may be performed by students of either gender. Minor changes may be made to the lyrics to<br />

accommodate the gender of the vocalist.<br />

� Sections of songs without voice, such as introductions and instrumental breaks, should be kept to a<br />

minimum length. These sections may be deleted.<br />

� Repeat verses are optional. When repeating a verse, students may embellish or ornament the melody<br />

in a way that is appropriate to the style of the song.<br />

Choosing a program<br />

The selected program should provide the student with an opportunity to demonstrate the highest level of<br />

performance. Care must be taken to choose an appropriate program that ensures the health of the student’s<br />

developing voice.<br />

Using the list<br />

The following information is provided for each song on the list, the composer/arranger, publication details<br />

for sheet music and, except for Vocalises, a reference recording. Both the notation and the recording may<br />

be used to develop an interpretation of the song.<br />

Developing interpretations of songs<br />

Students should use the examination assessment criteria as a guide when making decisions about how<br />

they will interpret each work in their program. Other considerations include the following:<br />

� songs should be interpreted in a way that is consistent with the conventions of the listed style, for<br />

example, a song listed in the ‘Jazz Ballad’ category should be interpreted as a Jazz Ballad<br />

� It has been recognised that the notation for many contemporary works is lacking in detail and in many<br />

cases does not accurately reflect the style of the work.<br />

� Using the sheet music and reference recording in combination allows students to make decisions<br />

about how they will interpret specific elements of music. The reference recording should be used as a<br />

guide in determining the form and style in which the student performs the work. Students should not<br />

directly copy the recording, but should find their own interpretation of the work. An alternative<br />

reference recording may be used if the track is identical to that listed. For example, the same recorded<br />

track is often found on numerous recordings of the same artist, such as a compilation album. Some<br />

identical CDs are distributed with different catalogue numbers but have the same CD title. Use the<br />

catalogue number as a guide for selection. Students may also listen to other recordings of the work to<br />

enhance their understanding of interpretive possibilities for the song.<br />

� Improvisation as appropriate to the style the student has chosen for the interpretation may be<br />

incorporated into the performance of songs. Where a student chooses to incorporate improvisation, the<br />

original material should be presented first, for example in the first verse followed by improvisation in<br />

the second verse. The assessment will be based on performance skills demonstrating an understanding<br />

of styles rather than the nature of the musical ideas arising within the improvised sections. The<br />

improvised material should embellish the performance rather than demonstrate an open-ended concept<br />

of improvisation.<br />

� Works from the Vocalise category must be performed as ‘expressive songs’. Students may use sounds<br />

(vowels/diphthongs) in the print music or other sounds as appropriate. The vocalise may be<br />

accompanied by a single instrument or a backing track (without melody line) may be used.<br />

Performing a vocalise without accompaniment is not recommended.<br />

Accompaniments<br />

The accompaniment may be provided live by a single instrument such as piano, guitar, bass, synthesiser,<br />

or another keyboard. Different works in the program may be accompanied by a different instrument.<br />

Alternatively, students may use a recorded accompaniment. A maximum of three (3) works may be<br />

presented with pre-recorded accompaniment. The content of the accompaniment will not be assessed in<br />

the performance. Students may accompany themselves, for example, using guitar, keyboard/piano or a<br />

percussion instrument. When they are deciding whether to accompany themselves or not, students should<br />

consider whether or not their focus as a singer will be disrupted by their focus on performing the<br />

accompaniment.<br />

The accompaniment must not include the melody line being performed by the student. Accompanists may<br />

need to omit this line from the accompaniment provided in sheet music. For backing tracks, it may be<br />

necessary to use a ‘pan’ function on the play-back equipment to ensure that the melody line cannot be<br />

heard. Some backing-track CDs offer a choice – one track with the melody line that can be used for<br />

learning and another without the melody, which should be selected for the performance.<br />

The notation of accompaniments in some editions is lacking detail and in many cases does not accurately<br />

reflect the style of the work. The accompanying instrumentalist should provide a suitable accompaniment<br />

within the style of the composition. The accompanist should present an interpretation of the work that is<br />

consistent with the interpretation being presented by the singer. The reference recording may assist<br />

accompanists to develop an appropriate accompaniment for the song.<br />

Recorded accompaniments may include the sounds of one or more instruments. These may be purchased<br />

as a pre-recorded backing track or students may present their own pre-recorded accompaniment. Students<br />

should ensure that all backing tracks are of a high quality, altering the volume to suit the acoustics of the<br />

room. All backing tracks including click tracks used during the recital performance must be audible to<br />

assessors.<br />

Sample programs<br />

Sample programs are provided as advice only. The works need not be performed in the order listed.<br />
