ATS2123 - Performance 4 - 2018

This unit develops intermediate music performance skills by studying repertoire drawn from the literature of the student's principal instrument or voice. The choice of repertoire presented should be of greater complexity and difficulty than that studied in ATS2122 Performance 3.

Upon successful completion of the unit, students will be able to:

1. utilise conventions of instrumental/vocal technique with some expertise;
2. perform instrumental/vocal repertoire with a growing control of rhythm; articulation, timbre and intonation (if applicable)
3. prepare specifically chosen works drawn from the literature of the students' instrument/voice, identifying relevant repertoire;
4. demonstrate musicianship with a developing sophistication in phrasing, dynamic control and general expression;
5. perform effectively in a chosen/approved music ensemble with a critical awareness of the various roles involved;
6. demonstrate perceptive music listening skills through verbal critiques.
