 SUGGESTED RESOURCES

The following is a suggested list of minimum equipment and materials that should be available to the
Department of Music in its preparation of candidates for this examination:

1. suitable music room;

2. high quality recording and listening equipment, CD recorder/electronic recording device;

3. instruments of which the following are strongly recommended:

(a) piano or five-octave electronic keyboard (touch sensitive);
(b) 2 acoustic guitars;
(c) 2 conga or other types of drums of different tones;
(d) 6 recorders (in addition, it is recommended that individual students purchase their
own, if they are offering this instrument for examination);
(e) set of pitched percussion instruments (for example, steel pan, xylophone,
glockenspiel); and,
(f) set of non-pitched percussion instruments (for example, tambourines, cymbals,
claves, guiros).

In areas where there are other instruments, (strings and wind) which are commonly used, these may
be substituted for any of the above.

4. computer hardware and software (at minimum 3 work stations);

5. listening resource material:

(a) a range of recordings drawn from the following musical genres:

- Folk (Caribbean and others);
- Popular (Caribbean and others);
- Western Art;
- African;
- Latin American;
- East Indian; and,
- Indigenous.

(b) a range of scores, texts and other printed materials related to music.

It is strongly recommended that a Music Department be equipped with additional instruments and a
wide range of recordings, texts and materials. These would be highly advantageous in meeting the
demands of the syllabus.
