This material has been designed specifically to help teachers who never quite have the time to do the research and analysis they would like! It aims to provide a comprehensive guide to all of the six works within the Area of Study, providing background information about the composer and the work, plus a full analysis.

The information is broken down into easily identifiable and usable sections, each of which can be used within the classroom. These include sections about the composer, an overview of the work, a full analysis and a conclusion. The full analysis is broken down into smaller sections using the headings most often found on the examination papers – scoring, structure, melody, rhythm, harmony and tonality. Bar numbers of all important features are given to aid recognition and easily be transcribed onto the students own score. This facilitates easy study of the works and enables the similarities and differences between them to be easily spotted making the answering of examination type questions much easier and clearer.

Also included is a comprehensive list of all the terms used in the works, plus explanations and bar references and instruments used.

Most importantly, the information is written in an easy to follow format and language, making it accessible for students as well as teachers, so providing a complete set of revision notes.
