Riassunto

This book is a thoroughly revised edition of Rhinegolds highly acclaimed study guide for Edexcel AS Music. It includes detailed notes on all of the set works for examination from 2009 to 2013, written in a clear and understandable style. The text is illustrated throughout with helpfully annotated musical examples to support explanations of the concepts encountered in the music. It ends with an expanded glossary that relates technical terms to specific examples in the New Anthology of Music. There are lots of questions to help you check that you have understood what you have read, and each section ends with sample questions of the type expected in the new specification. The authors offer guidance relating to Sections B and C of the Developing Musical Understanding paper, and help on the requirements for composing, and practical advice on performing. This is a study guide you can use throughout your Edexcel As Music course as an effective supplement to the work you do with your teachers.
