20 Level 10 History Practice Paper 1 Examiner Comments Total Mark for this Examination: 85/ /20 This question tests the student s knowledge of five required pieces. Each descriptive statement is designed to be specific to one piece. One mark is awarded for each correct answer. The student has answered seventeen questions correctly /20 In this question, the student supplies a term and composition title for ten of the given definitions. One mark is allotted for each correct term, and one mark is allotted for each correct composition title. There are several terms for which more than one composition title may apply (see the Answer Key). For example, for terms such as aria or harpsichord, there are many possible titles from the list of required works. On the other hand, for opera buffa there is only one possible title from the works required for this examination. In the event that the student answers more than the required number of questions, the policy is to mark the first ten (or five, etc., as the case may be). Deductions on this student paper are as follows: In line 2, the student has not provided a title for ternary. In line 3, My Bonny Lass She Smileth is not an example of an aria; it is a madrigal. In line 5, the student has incorrectly provided chorale as the term instead of cantata. The composition title, however, is correct. In line 6, the student has correctly identified rondo as the form, but the composition title (Rondo all Turca) is not one of the works required for this examination, and therefore has not been accepted. In line 9, the student has written Kyrie as the second movement of the Mass Ordinary. The correct answer is Gloria. The example of Messe de Nostre Dame is acceptable because it contains a Gloria movement; the other acceptable answer is Pope Marcellus Mass /20 On questions of this type, generally the student chooses four works and answer specific questions. This student has answered questions for four of the six musical excerpts. Each one has been marked out of five marks for a total of twenty marks. All the given answers are correct for a perfect score on this question. Examiner Commentary Copyright 2017 The Royal Conservatory

21 Level 10 History: Practice Paper 1 continued 4. 17/20 a. 9/10 In part (a) of this question, the student is asked to indicate the era with which each term or historical figure is most closely associated. Each answer is worth half a mark for a total of ten marks. The student has lost two half marks: one for placing points of imitation in the Baroque era (it is a Renaissance technique) and the other for placing trouvères in the Renaissance era (this term applies to aristocratic poet-musicians of the Middle Ages). b. 8/10 In part (b) of this question, the student is asked to match a description of a musical composition or treatise to the correct title. This student has lost two marks by confusing the descriptions of the Dissonance String Quartet by Mozart and the Lord Nelson Mass by Haydn /10 a. 7.5/10 In part (a) of this question, the student chooses one of two major works to describe in detail. The student has chosen to describe Piano Sonata in C Minor, op. 13 ( Pathétique ). For the examiner s detailed commentary, please see the marked paper. In general, this student has provided a good overview and has demonstrated a detailed knowledge of portions of the work. There are only a few factual errors (for example, mixing up two of the keys in the first movement); apart from these, the information provided is correct. At times the discussion becomes generic and rather than provide the musical features and details of each movement, the student describes in general terms the way that a sonata form movement or a rondo might frequently unfold. Of course, this basic understanding of structure and form is a good starting place, but the discussion needs to be filled out with specific musical details. b. 8.5/10 In part (b) of this question, the student is asked to describe the significance and contributions of each figure (or group) in relation to the development of opera. For Florentine Camerata, the student has received 1.5/2.5. The student began by identifying the group and providing historical context (Florence, end of Renaissance era), going on to say that the members talked about Greek drama. However, the purpose of the Florentine Camerata remains obscure, as does their connection to the development of opera. A mention of monody is important here. For Monteverdi, the student has received 2/2.5. This is a good start and places Monteverdi as a transitional composer, moving from the late Renaissance into the Baroque Era. The student mentions stile concitato and two titles of operas by Monteverdi. However, for full marks, the student could expand on his contributions to the development of opera in more specific terms. The sections on Purcell and Handel are very well done, each receiving full marks. Examiner Commentary Copyright 2017 The Royal Conservatory
