ABRSM Singing for Musical Theatre Sample Aural Tests G4-5

NOT FOR USE IN 2018

FROM 2019

Sight-singing is a skill with many benefits. It helps you perform new music with confidence and learn songs more quickly. It can be a useful skill to demonstrate in auditions and, for example, it could help youstep into a new role at short notice.

These tests have been designed to be relevant to Musical Theatre singers. They are in attractive, accessible styles and include optional words. Each short piece starts with a piano introduction consisting of the final bars of the test you will then sing. The piano part either doubles (grades 1 and 2) or closely supports (grade 3) the melody line throughout, so you can use your listening skills to find the tune, as well as read it.
