The exemplars in this section are organised by question.
Each question indicates the musical excerpt(s) on which it is based. Below this, four examples of candidate work are reproduced - followed in each case by a marker's commentary.
The candidates are kept in the same order throughout and a final script mark is given with the Marker's commentary for Question 8.
Full marking instructions are available from the Toolbox at the foot of this page.
Question 3 – Graphical music is taken from ‘Carillon’ by Flowers/Gomm.
