Notes:

1. “ ” (semiquavers) is not covered. It is covered comprehensively in Music Room 6, Unit 1, lessons 1-4. 2. “ ” (semibreve rest) is not covered in any book. It is included in passing in Unit 1, lesson 7, Chart 6, but only as a whole bar rest and not a 4 semi-breve rest. It can be taught

and incorporated into Unit 1 Lesson 3 and the Beat grouping exercise (Chart 2) (also in Book 5 Unit 1, Lesson 4 Syncopated Rhythm Composition) 3. Does not address allegro, largo and moderato. They are covered in Music Room 7, Unit 3, Lesson 4 (Chart 19). Can be incorporated into a revision of Music Room 2, Unit 3 Lessons

5 and 6. 4. Does not address cresc or decresc. This was addressed, although not explicitly, in Book 3, Unit 3, Lesson 7, which can be revised with these terms included. It can also be

incorporated into various exercises in Book 5, Unit 3, Lessons 1-8.


David Hardie 2018

5. Does not address repeat sign. This is done in Book 5, Unit 3, Lesson 8. It can also be covered in Unit 1, lesson 7 “Skin and Bone”. 6. The role of audience is not explicitly covered although this is easy to incorporate into a reflection exercise after any class performance.
