Description
Welcome to this course, where you'll learn the different test in the ABRSM Aural Test Grade 1, and practice listening aka ear training.
In this course, I'll go through each test in the aural section of the ABRSM graded music exam. You'll get to know the details of each test, how they are tested, and what candidates are required to do. I'll also give tips and tricks, and go through the music concepts needed for each test.
After going through each test, you'll get to practice with examples. After all, aural is all about practicing, and that's what you'll get in this course.
In the new ABRSM syllabus, students have a choice of the graded music exam or the performance grade exam. This course is written based on the graded music exam's aural test component.
Even if you are taking the performance grade (which does not come with the aural test component), aural training is still an essential part of music learning. It trains you to listen to the nuances of rhythm, melody, harmony, articulation, and more. These training will be useful when you progress in learning your instrument.

Instructor
Hi! I am RL!
I have been an engineer by training, and have worked as an engineer for more than a decade. I specialize in Chemical Engineering and worked in various related industries for more than a decade. I love engineering, as it's the technology behind building things.
In addition to being an engineer, I'm also a serial academic content creator. Back in school, I love all the subjects I took. I got straight As for my A Levels. I also obtained a First Class Honors in my Engineering degree. I'll like to share my love for these subjects, and have created and conducted hundreds of lessons for students to help them with their academic exams for more than 2 decades.
Academic subjects and engineering aside, I also have an all- time favorite pastime - playing the piano and listening to classical music. When I started learning piano, it was basically playing others' pieces, but as I grow, I started to rearrange pieces to my liking, and even create some of my own.
I teach a variety of courses ranging from engineering, to academics to music - all of which I have decades of experience in.
