    Conservatoriums - GENERAL: Entry, atmosphere, auditions etc.

    not sure if this is answering anyone's questions but just putting my understanding up for anyone whos interested... obviously the con bases it more on the audition than the UAI. So if they're e.g. choosing between two people of about the same standard they're gonna pick the one with the...

    No, but the area between the two thresholds (the 'aerobic training zone') is where you would normally train within to cause an improvement in (aerobic) fitness.

    Music 2- musicology paper

    I think the best way to "study" (hmm..) for the essay question is to write down a list of the musical concepts, and pick 1 or 2 pieces which you think best demonstrate each concept. Best have at least one piece from mandatory and one from additional topic for each concept. That way, you don't...
