Edexcel a level music - wider listening
Mind maps for each area of study in a level music: Vocal, Instrumental, film, popular and jazz, fusion and new directions. I’ve included examples of wider listening and provided basic analysis of each given example. This really helped me out cause question 5 always scared me but this was good help so hoping it can help anyone else out who also struggled to find some wider listening :)
