Hi All,

Anyone studying for Grade VIII Theory examinations?

I'm confident with questions 1-3 and feel Questions 4-5 are rather pot luck. The question I seem to be struggling on is Pharsing. Do you have any tips on these kind of questions (eg: Compare bars 1-4 with 8-12)

I wondered how you approach a Phrasing question.

Many Thanks,
Craig

Heya,

I'm teaching myself Grade 8 theory at the moment...

With regards to this "I wondered how you approach a Phrasing question (eg: Compare bars 1-4 with 8-12)"

All I can say is look for the similarities... I'm not quite sure what you're asking here...

Do you mean by phrasing question 'mark the phrasing on the score' questions?

For examples of the types of answers they expect for the compare bars 1-4 with 8-12 look in the AB's theory books (the ones with the big 6, 7 or 8) on the front: they have questions like that and answers which they would consider valid: these include things like 'the dynamic markings are different' etc.
