Bahaha i've never met anyone other than me who does ABRSM lmao. I used to be good at theory but i've forgotten it all, so i'm cooked for aural

idk about ABRSM but AMEB theory has four-part harmony, so cooked

you considering doing music for HSC?

Ah that's interesting, for ABRSM grade 8 we have four short aural tests
1. Stuff on chords and cadences
2. You get 4 bars of sheet music, the examiner plays the treble clef part and you sing the bass
3. Modulations
4. The examiner plays an extract and you have to answer questions on style, period, features of the piece etc

Hmm my school has music 2 so maybe. And accel music (2?) which starts in year 10, but they also have accel agriculture and i think i can only choose one

you can only choose one is so mean both sound like fun (okay music 2 is annoying at times but also enjoyable so, every subject I think has its annoying parts)

And interesting interesting interesting for the aural, the bass sight singing is kinda random but none of it seems too out of left field

is the aural directly attached to the exam? like it’s part of the grade 8 syllabus? or is it a separate theory exam like grade 4 for example that you have to take at the same time

Yep it's part of the exam and worth 18 marks, in total the whole exam has 150 marks including pieces, sight-reading, aural and scales. The theory exam is a whole other level lol it has composition which im scared of
