Edexcel GCSE Music - Wider Listening Workbook

This is an extensive 60 page resource to complement the Edexcel GCSE Music course, offering a range of wider listening questions and tasks covering 33 different pieces. This workbook suits pupils throughout their GCSE course, for in-lesson activities or for homework. It is clear, guided and improves independence and confidence in their exam technique. The document includes a clearly laid out contents page, musical element definition reminder and a reflection page at the end.

The pieces are selected from the Edexcel suggested wider listening list, but I have also added in a few which I thought would be good to look at. I have created every question myself - most are typical of a Question 9 unfamiliar listening question, but some are useful tasks to help students to identify musical features in an unfamiliar piece without the pressure. The necessary score excerpts are included within the workbook, and the full scores are available within this pack. The audio can be found in this Spotify playlist: https://open.spotify.com/playlist/1vm0Of3CreRas9ecfWeyoN?si=f48e0a6b667b40b2 and the track numbers align with the score file numbers and the contents list, so everything is incredibly easy to find.

I hope that this resource is as useful for your pupils as it is for mine. Any issues or questions please email me on kirstenparry12@gmail.com. Thank you for your support!
