As a celebration of student achievement, ENCORE’s impressive program illustrates the range, variety and challenges offered by the three HSC Music courses across styles, genres and musical periods. The 2020 program is diverse, featuring original works and technically challenging pieces that demonstrate the outstanding effort, passion and commitment of these young vocalists, instrumentalists and composers. The honour roll in the program acknowledges the students who presented exemplary musicology electives across the three HSC courses. ENCORE represents the culmination of the strong collaboration between the talented students, their dedicated teachers and their families and friends. Thank you for your support and encouragement through these years of study. To the students – congratulations, good luck for the future and enjoy this amazing opportunity to perform. The Hon Sarah Mitchell MLC Minister for Education and Early Childhood Learning • 1 • Program HSC 2019 ENCORE and HSC Music ENCORE is a program of outstanding performances and compositions by students from the Higher School Certificate Music examinations. Music syllabuses for the Higher School Certificate offer students opportunities to develop musical knowledge, skills and understanding and to become adept at performing and composing in a variety of styles and genres. ENCORE also recognises the exemplary work in musicology electives. Students in the Music 2 and Music Extension courses who undertook musicology electives were required to submit a prepared essay as part of the HSC examination. Students of Music 1 undertaking musicology as an elective were required to present a 10-minute viva voce (discussion) with the examiners at the time of their practical examinations. The students named in the Honour List in this program were identified as having exemplary work in musicology electives. • 2 • Program HSC 2019 HSC MUSIC In 2019, students were examined according to Stage 6 syllabuses in Music 1, Music 2 and Music Extension. In addition to the core, which has aural training as its basis, students had the option to undertake elective studies in performance, composition and musicology. The Music 1 course is primarily designed for students who have not studied the elective course in Music Years 7–10, although it is available to all students who wish to study it. The Music 2 course consists of a mandatory topic, Music of the Last 25 Years (Australian focus), and an additional topic. In this course, students perform works representing these topics, write their own compositions, and undertake musicological research and aural training. In the Music Extension course students specialise in performance, composition or musicology. Examination In all Music Practical examinations in 2019, students could present performances in a variety of styles. In Music 1, students presented up to four pieces representing topics studied in the HSC course. In Music Extension performance, one piece had to be an ensemble work. In addition, all students undertook a written examination that tested aural and/or musicology skills. Graduates of the NESA Music courses have developed skills in general understanding and appreciation of music. • 3 • Program HSC 2019 16 – 17 March 2020 City Recital Hall Compere: John Foreman, OAM Perrin Ford St Mary’s Cathedral College Composer Oculi Omnium (Ford) Harry Wagstaff Knox Grammar School Cello Piano Trio in G minor Op. 15, Mvt 3 (Smetana) Yung Kim Sydney Boys High School Flute Sonatina, Mvt 1 (Burton) Nikolas Rejto St Luke’s Grammar School Classical Guitar Blackwattle Caprices, No. 1 (Edwards) Luka Biggin-Johnston Cape Byron Rudolf Steiner School Electric Bass Boogie On Reggae Woman (Wonder) Leah Amaral Our Lady of Mercy College Parramatta Composer The Inferno Polka (Amaral) Eunice Li Pymble Ladies’ College Piano Piano Sonata No.18 in D Major K.576, Mvt 1 (Mozart) Gabrielle Montalbo Conservatorium High School Composer Frenetic Dance (Montalbo) Guy Nicol Barker College Clarinet Trio Pathétique, Mvt 1 (Glinka) Emily Scarlis Kambala Composer Shadows on the Water (Scarlis) Ryo Ge North Sydney Girls High School Piano Hommages III.
