Grade 6 Standard Piano
-
20-04-2010 07:02PM#1Ok. Well I have an interview for Maynooth in the next month and I have to play a piano piece. The piece I would be most comfortable with is Gnossienne No1 by Erik Satie. The problem is that they want grade 6 standard. I havent done any grades in years and I dont really know if this piece would be of the right standard. Does anybody here have any idea of the standards?

Right, I'm in the course now, just about to finish, but I'll give you a couple of tips.
With the audition, don't worry about making mistakes. They happen, and are far from the be all and end all of music.
Concentrate on making a musical environment with the piece. Work on your dynamics and expression. The gnossienne(s?) are always overlooked wrongly as being wallpaper music, so make it sing!
The lecturers will be looking for potential musical talent, not existing. (although if its alreadt there, you'll be fine!
)
Soooo, basically relax and make music. I'm sticking around for a masters next year, so hopefully I'll be seeing you there! Good luck! 0
