Preparation documents
The templates for preparing for the entrance exam Music Theory are divided into three parts: I. Basics, II. Composition and III. Aural Training. The basics are partly related to the written exam and partly to the oral exam, and the text specifies exactly what to pay attention to. This knowledge is absolutely necessary for the candidates. Part II - Tonsatz - concerns the written examination in the task - Exposing the basso continuo. An extended cadenza should be performed by the candidates on the piano during the oral examination, not in C major and A minor. In Part III - Aural Training - orientation examples are given for the dictations in the oral examination. It is helpful for the candidates to analyze them, play them and sing them.
