The document includes summarised notes on the area of Music for Orchestra in the Twentieth Century;, in the A2 3 unit: Responding to Music. The content of the notes is drawn from Factfile, the Eguide provided by CCEA, and some additional sources. The majority of the notes of the setworks are set out in a timeline format that lays out what's happening in different sections of the set work with the timings provided. The end pages of each set work contain attached Mark Schemes from over the years since 2018 and SPEC. Music is one subject that is different in how you approach revision. Such notes worked for me, and it will work for you. Along with listening to the setworks in your own time, the contents included in my notes are all you need for the test of aural perception and the written examination. I recommend drawing up your version but following my format and contents. Now it's time for you to get your A*.
