NCEA Level 1 Music

Course Description

In this course we will explore appropriate instrumental or vocal repertoire to inform choices in preparation for solo and group performances. 

All performances will take place before an audience. 

We will compose our own original pieces and songs using genre appropriate musical conventions to capture and represent our ideas. 

We will learn about the formal conventions of music in written representation to enhance our understanding of music as a medium for expressive communication.
