Whether you are intending to pursue a career in music, are currently working as a professional and wish to broaden your qualifications, or are purely after the satisfaction of achieving a personal goal, you will find that one of our Diplomas is right for you. There are three Diploma subject-lines – Music Performance, Music Direction, and Instrumental/ Vocal Teaching. Each subject-line has three levels of award: DipABRSM Diploma of The Associated Board of the Royal Schools of Music LRSM Licentiate of the Royal Schools of Music FRSM Fellowship of the Royal Schools of Music The requirements within each subject-line at each level are generally comparable, and the syllabus for each subject-line is published separately. Encouraging diverse approaches to the performing, directing and teaching of music, the Diplomas stimulate enjoyment and achievement through the progressive acquisition of skills, knowledge and understanding. As a result, their usefulness has been acknowledged by music services and agencies around the world. They are compatible with systems of assessment widely applied in higher education and encourage lifelong learning, without restrictions on length of study or the requirement that you, the candidate, are taught in an institution. In the UK they have been admitted to the National Qualifications Framework and are accredited by the Qualifications and Curriculum Authority (see p. 122). The Music Performance Diplomas are designed to reflect your day-to-day experience as a performer, whether amateur or professional. As well as demonstrating your skills as a soloist, from LRSM level there is the opportunity for you to specialize as an orchestral player, chamber ensemble member or keyboard accompanist. There are also options, at all three levels, to perform on an instrument related to your main instrument for a part of your Recital and to perform repertoire of your own choice. The following tasks are included: ● compiling a balanced recital programme, finding editions that suit your interpretation best, and writing about the music ● talking with confidence about the music and the way you interpret it ● sight-reading at short notice to a reasonable standard (Quick Study) ● putting on the best possible performance on the day. You will need to satisfy the examiners that you have a command of your chosen instrument in the context of Western art music. (Throughout this syllabus, the term ‘instrument’ is used to include ‘voice’.) As you move up through the Diploma levels you will find that the repertoire becomes more demanding, the Recital time lengthens, and the challenge of the Quick Study, and the scope and length of your written work, increase. At each level you will be assessed according to the overall quality of your performance, as well as your understanding of and sensitivity to the demands of different types of repertoire. In order to establish basic levels of competence, a specific prerequisite is required before entry can be made to any level. However, in line with our aim to provide open access and to recognize your achievements, we offer a range of substitutions for these prerequisites, including your previous learning and experience. The prerequisites and their substitutions are listed in the tables on pp. 20–21. They are also to be found on our website (www.abrsm.org/exams/diplomas), where any substitutions appearing after the issue of this syllabus will also be listed. We hope that you find the experience of taking one of our Diplomas stimulating, challenging and worthwhile, both during the period of preparation and in the exam itself. 01 Dip Perf syll 2007:01 Dip Perf syll 2007 29/11/07 13:31 Page 5 CONTENT OF THE DIPLOMA CONTENT MUSIC PERFORMANCE DIPLOMAS 6 Overview 7 DipABRSM 11 LRSM 14 FRSM 18 Summary of skills, knowledge and understanding at all levels 01 Dip Perf syll 2007:01 Dip Perf syll 2007 29/11/07 13:31 Page 6 6 OVERVIEW Overview The Music Performance Diplomas are available to instrumental and vocal performers. Through live and written components, you, the candidate, will be examined in your command of performance technique and interpretative skill coupled with an appropriate knowledge of the idiom and repertoire of your instrument/voice. The Diplomas are conducted in English (see p. 34) and are assessed wherever possible DIPLOMA CONTENT by two examiners. Before you can enter for a Music Performance Diploma, you will need to show that you fulfil a specific ABRSM prerequisite as evidence that you have reached a required minimum level of competence.
