What the college says

Studying the Subject - The AS Level specification builds on the skills developed in GCSE Music. Students will extend their performance and composition skills whilst also developing their listening and analytical skills by studying a variety of pieces of music from the areas of study.

In addition, a small number of set works are studied in detail.
