Practical Exams

Additional Metropolitan July Exam Session

For candidates who might be waiting for face-to-face Practical exams to resume, we will offer an additional session: Series 6 – “July Metropolitan Session”. Exams will be offered at the AMEB Studios in Hawthorn from 20 July till 7 August, and at schools and private studios where the hosting requirements can be met. Naturally, the physical distancing rules at the time will apply. Enrolments on AMEB Connect are now open.

We are also awaiting further confirmation on a special sitting to be scheduled 22- 24 June for all our students who have registeed for the first and second sitting. We will keep you posted on it as soon as we hear from AMEB Vic.

Repertoire exams by video

AMEB Victoria is now offering Repertoire exams by video. The examination requirements will be the same as the face-to-face Repertoire exam described in the 2020 Manual of Syllabuses.

In 2020, Repertoire grade exams are also available to students of Piano for Leisure, Singing for Leisure, Saxophone for Leisure and P Plate Piano, by video or face-to-face (circumstances permitting).

In 2020, because of the physical distancing restrictions, pre-recorded accompanimentsmay be used for Video Repertoire examinations up to Grade 8, where required, subject to certain restrictions. Further, when performing in examination with an official AMEB recorded accompaniment using an app that slows down or speeds up tempo without affecting pitch, the candidate may choose a tempo commensurate with their ability and interpretative judgement in demonstrating the technical, musical and artistic objectives for the level (that is, the candidate is not restricted to the tempo on the CD version of the official recordings).

AMEB video Repertoire exams are open for enrolment on AMEB Connect (Select Series 60 – Video Repertoire Exams,) and the video submission form may be found on the AMEB Victoria website.

Rockschool Performance Certificates (Premiere to Grade 8) and Rockschool Graded Certificates (Debut to Grade 5) for our drum students are also available via video submission (enrolments are now open on AMEB Connect).
