Hmmm yes that's trickier for me. I can't hear the music in my head so I struggle in exam conditions with this sort of thing, though fine if I can sit at the piano and pick stuff out.
Have done stuff on harmony too (like not doing parallel 5ths and octaves etc). Is it more in depth than that or is it more about the rules.

Hurrah!!!! Have I passed then???
Ahh next page...Ex 9 Q (a) This is definitely Mozart. It's from his violin sonata K547, I recognize it. Oh if only all tests were such gifts.
Aren't there any answers to these??? How do I know if I'm doing it right....do I have to rely on Nat to mark all my tests???

One long drink for Nicki please waiter....
Now what kills pollen? I think we need to get inventing again. Maybe a special hoover that sucks it all out the atmosphere and re-routes it to the nearest bee-hive.

Is there no staff here today?? (by that I mean waiting staff as opposed to musicians, entertainers, dancing teachers, fake diners, etc etc)
And lets hope Car Expert and Wobby don't see that or there will be a new role on the list of current vacancies of "theory answerer" eeeekkk

When we went mountain biking at Forest Challenge I got huge bruises as the bikes didn't have any suspension and because the seats were awful. But luckily, I had biking gloves on.
