Audio Recordings – For reasons of copyright, this resource does not contain the audio recordings that are required to complete the questions.

Skeleton Scores for Unfamiliar Listening – Unlike the books for Areas of Study 1 and 2, the extracts used for the unfamiliar questions are not taken from music in the public domain. For copyright reasons scores have not, therefore, been included. In place of this, instructions have been included detailing how a score can be made and a suggested score available from Musicnotes.com. The absence of these scores is reflected in the cheaper price of the books for AoS3 and AoS4. These questions are all based on those that will be found in Section A of the examination.
