Theory exams are over! Finally!
To tell the truth, taking Grade 6 theory over a leisurely 2 years has actually pulled me out from my little world, where I romantically thought that composing music on piano was by ear. I was found mistaken when I learnt there were actually formulae to memorise in composing.
*Bang* goes that theory >.<
Anyways, I'm not that concerned about this years ABRSM paper. Q4 and 5 is usually the killer but compared to the past years practise papers I've tried, this year's is actually quite straight forward.
Q4 was a Violin Sonata which was atonal (Had no fixed key) so I figured it would be from the Modern period. Sadly, no music history Q's in the ENTIRE paper this year.
*Cry,cry* Lol.
And Q5 was a ochestra piece by Schubert. Obviously from the Romantic era.. But again, no questions on that.
Q4 was confusing to say the least. I mean, 3 key changes in 6 bars? What's the point??
Well, like I said, theory is a killer, and I'm facing my Grade 7 Practical exams this Thursday.
Just kill me now.
