Hi, the AB violin syllabus is dated from 2001- 2004. My daughter has taken grade 3 and will take grade 4 next Easter. Does anyone when the ab publishes the new syllabus - or will the old one remain in force?

OK I can answer my own question. I had looked on the site for ages without finding it - I found it today. August is when the new syllabus comes out - although through 2005 you can use the existing syllabus.

isnt it only for the first session of exams that you can use the old syallbus?!

anyway if your daughter takes it next easter thats fine! smile.gif

Yes, it's only for the March exam session that you can use the 'old' syllabus - though, as Nat says, it shouldn't affect your daughter anyway.

Sorry for sounding a bit lost here, but does that mean I can use 03/04 exam pieces in Nov 04 ? dry.gif

I'm not sure when the cut off point is.

Someone said you can use it until next easter.

03/04 is valid up to and including the first exam session of 05.

Hi Nat,

Just had my lesson earlier this evening with a different teacher who I prefer. So I am going to stick with her. rolleyes.gif

She's very good and just what I need.

She thinks I may be pushing it to do my GIII in Nov.

So I've decided I'm going to get stuck in and aim for March instead before the exam pieces expire. Unless I can do extremely well and do it Nov.

How are you getting on ?

if your teacher thinks March is a better time to do it then she is probably right lol!!

im not getting on too badly! but some people have said im doing too much so something somewhere is going to have to stop!! whether its violin so soon after starting again i dont know!! but its only for the moment while i ave courswork and exams-im really exhausted at the mo!! sad.gif

Well you do play a lot of instruments Nat laugh.gif

People ask me how I manage to do GVI theory, GIII piano, GIII violin look after 3 kids a husband and house and still get out of the house b4 9am ! cool.gif

I'm not surprised that it is a bit of a strain with all your instruments and coursework !

Just be careful you don't burn yourself out and take it easy.

Try and be honest with yourself with what workload you can manage.
