Some students enrolling on courses will be more advanced than others and therefore certain aspects will be very familiar to some while being completely new to others. Although you have passed Grade 5 Theory, it is a separate qualification from Academia Musicale and units 1 and 2 are required before progressing on to the other units. The benefits are that, by being more advanced, you can work through units 1 and 2 quickly and think of them serving as useful revision before starting unit 3.

Any musician entering the profession needs to have a well-rounded education in Music. To be able to understand the performance aspects of Music, a good level of academic, theoretical and contextual knowledge is required. All conservatoire courses will have several academic modules and in addition to performing, students will be required to study history, analysis, theoretical performance, composition, aural skills and much more besides. As with learning a language where listening, reading, writing and speaking are all essential components, Music is similar with the above topics listed all playing an important part.
While Academia Musicale has no links with Grade 5 Theory exams, the General Musicianship and Music History course provides a thorough basis of theoretical concepts which would dovetail with required content of theory grades.

I went from having a busy diary of bookings for concerts, rehearsals, exams and other performances to having most commitments cancelled or postponed indefinitely to 2022 and beyond. Read more
