hi ,

This year i am going to have my singing examination .
i don't know what 's the different between singing in sight and aural test ?
could you tell me how the test going on during this two parts??

Thank you

What grade are you doing? Regardless of what grade it is, the sightreading is basically where the examiner gives you a short song and you have to sing it as well as you can after looking over it for a short while. The aural tests...involves the examiner playing a short piece of music on the piano and you have to sing it back to them, in the higher grades there will be two parts played and you have to sing the lower of the two. Also, they'll give you some music which basically has a few notes on, they give you the first note and then you have to sing the rest of the sequence...pitching the notes as well as you can, if you go wrong though the examiner will normally play the proper note to help you get back on track though! Hope this helps, although it's a bit vague! Naomi x

Thank you for your help !!!

I am going to have grade 5 Singing

Tiffany,

Have a look at the exams section of the website, where it will tell you what's required for the aural tests. And have a look at the syllabus for more details of the sight-reading requirement.

Aural tests details here

details of sight-singing test are paragraph k on the front page here. Specific requirements for Grade 5 are on page 14.

Cheers
