Debary Elementary School – CAMBRIDGE AICE MUSIC 1 AS LEVEL

Apr 2026 · 2nd Semester

AS/A Level Music students develop an appreciation of, and informed critical response to, music of the Western tradition from at least two genres and periods. Students learn how to listen attentively and responsively to better understand the musical processes at work: they also learn how to communicate this understanding, supporting their judgments through evidence-based argument. Additional curricular topics will also be presented and assessed. Students develop their own creative and interpretive skills through the disciplines of composing and performing in Western and/or non-Western traditions. AS Level year concentrates on listening, performing, or composing. A-Level builds on AS Level and concentrates on composing an original piece, investigating and reporting, and performing on a musical instrument or voice. Cambridge students may be required to take the Cambridge International Examination CIE). Students will take the AS Level examination.
