This unit describes the skills and knowledge required to improve aural perception skills. It applies to individuals including musicians, songwriters, composers, arrangers, conductors and musical directors. These individuals use well developed aural perception skills, and knowledge of music structures and components in a range of contexts, including transcribing live or recorded music and preparing charts and other forms of notated music. No licensing, legislative or certification requirements apply to this unit at the time of publication.
Evidence of the ability to: - plan, monitor and evaluate progress in refining own aural perception skills. - hear and recognise complex music structures accurately - transcribe music structures using aural memory and aural perception skills - discuss and apply aural perception skills relevant to own music practice. Note: If a specific volume or frequency is not stated, then evidence must be provided at least once.
To complete the unit requirements safely and effectively, the individual must: - explain musical protocols, customs and terminology for listening to music relevant to the music specialisation - describe techniques to improve aural memory and skills for aural identification - explain conventions for music writing connected with aural transcription - explain issues and challenges that arise in the context of improving aural perception skills and how they might be addressed.
Assessment must be conducted in a safe environment where evidence gathered demonstrates consistent performance of typical activities experienced in creative arts industry environments. The assessment environment must include access to: - a selection of recorded or performed music - opportunities to demonstrate aural perception skills in music realisation and transcription. Assessors of this unit must satisfy the requirements for assessors in applicable vocational educational and training legislation, frameworks and/or standards.
