This Option test is taken entirely by ear.
Candidates who select this Option are required to provide a response on their instrument to each of two separate short phrases of unfamiliar music played by the Teacher-Assessor.
The key is stated, and the starting note of the first phrase named and played, by the Teacher-Assessor, who also counts in two bars before playing the first phrase.
The musical interaction should be continuous, in time and without a break.
