  1. utilise fundamental conventions of instrumental/vocal technique;
  2. perform instrumental/vocal repertoire, demonstrating control of rhythm, articulation, timbre and intonation (if applicable);
  3. prepare chosen works to demonstrate knowledge of relevant instrumental/vocal repertoire;
  4. demonstrate musicianship through phrasing, dynamics control and general expression found in the chosen repertoire;
  5. perform competently in a chosen/approved music ensemble;
