Grade 2 To identify a change in either pitch or rhythm during a phrase played by the examiner. The phrase will be two bars long, in a major key. First the examiner will play the key-chord and the tonic and then count in two bars. The examiner will play the phrase twice, making the change in the second playing, after which the candidate should identify the change by describing it, or singing/clapping. lf necessary, the examiner will play both versions of the phrase again (although this will affect the assessment).

Now 1'11 play a phrase twice, but with a change in either pitch or rhythm the second time. Te// me what the difference was. Here is the key-chord [play] and the tonic [play]. [Count in two bars and play the phrase for the first time.] And now with the change. [Play the altered phrase without counting in.]

How was it different? ... Thank you.
