I can't find my teachers note anywhere. I've looked in the syllabus.
Do you play the repeaet in this or not? It seems a shame not to as it's an integral part of the 'song' but....
Exam coming up for one of my pupils in a couple of weeks.
Advice please!

I'm afraid I might not be much help! I have the teaching notes and there's no mention of repeats. I don't have the grade 5 exam pieces as I don't have any pupils doing this grade at the moment so can't really comment further.
As you are probably aware it's normally only repeats of a few bars in the exam that should be done, if it's more than that then I'd say no?
Good luck

I didn't play the repeat in my exam

I don't have the pieces either, and I can't find anything in the notes, but in general if you have DC al Fine at the end then you do repeat, otherwise no.

Repeats aren't usually used in exams, unless stated at the bottom of the page. As this section is quite long, I would say that examiners won't expect the repeat to be observed.

I have had 2 previous pupils play this piece in exams and we didn't put the repeat in ad the marks and comments were ok
