  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.
