== Aural ==
 +
Listening lies at the heart of music-making and the ability to hear how music works helps with all aspects of musical development. Aural skills help with gauging the sound and balance of playing, keeping in time and playing with sense of rhythm and pulse. These skills also help to develop a sense of pitch, musical memory and the ability to spot mistakes.
 +
=== About the Test ===
 +
1. To clap the pulse of a piece played by the examiner, and to identify whether it is in two time or three time. <br/>
 +
2. To sing as 'echoes' three phrases played by the examiner.<br/>
 +
3. To identify a change in either pitch or rhythm during a phrase played by the examiner.<br/>
 +
4. To answer questions about two features of a piece played by the examiner.<br/>
