About the Curriculum

A brief on the three internationally recognized music institutions whose course structure we mostly follow for Western Music Students.

Associated Board of the Royal Schools of Music (ABRSM)

The Associated Board of the Royal Schools of Music (ABRSM) is an internationally recognized examination board based in the United Kingdom. Established in 1889, ABRSM is one of the leading institutions for music education and assessment worldwide.

ABRSM provides a comprehensive curriculum for music students, offering graded exams and diplomas in various musical instruments, singing, and theory. The curriculum covers a wide range of musical genres and styles, ensuring a holistic development of musicianship. The graded exams consist of practical assessments, where candidates perform pieces, scales, and technical exercises, along with aural and sight-reading components.

The ABRSM curriculum is structured into eight graded levels, starting from Initial and progressing through Grades 1 to 8. Each grade represents an incremental increase in difficulty, allowing students to develop their musical skills gradually. The curriculum emphasizes not only technical proficiency but also musical expression, interpretation, and aural awareness.

In addition to traditional Western classical music, ABRSM incorporates diverse repertoire choices to cater to the varied interests of musicians. Successful completion of ABRSM exams is widely recognized and respected, providing a valuable benchmark for musical achievement and proficiency. The ABRSM curriculum serves as a valuable guide for music educators and students alike, promoting a systematic and well-rounded approach to music learning and assessment.

Trinity College London

Trinity College London, commonly known as Trinity, is a renowned international examination board that focuses on the assessment and certification of musical and performing arts abilities. Established in 1877, Trinity has a rich history in providing high-quality examinations and certifications in various artistic disciplines.

Trinity's music curriculum encompasses a diverse range of genres and styles, offering graded examinations for instruments, singing, and theory. The graded system consists of eight levels, from Initial to Grade 8, each representing a progressive stage of difficulty and musical proficiency. The curriculum covers practical elements, such as performance, technical exercises, and aural skills, ensuring a well-rounded evaluation of a candidate's musical abilities.

One distinctive feature of Trinity's approach is its emphasis on contemporary and popular music alongside classical genres. This inclusion caters to the diverse interests of musicians and reflects the evolving landscape of musical expression. Trinity's assessments also include a focus on improvisation, allowing candidates to showcase their creativity and adaptability.

In addition to graded exams, Trinity offers diplomas for advanced-level candidates seeking further recognition of their musical accomplishments. The qualifications awarded by Trinity College London are widely respected and recognized globally, providing musicians with a credible benchmark for their artistic achievements. Trinity's curriculum is designed to foster a holistic understanding of music, encouraging both technical proficiency and expressive artistry in performers and educators.

Rockschool Limited

Rockschool Limited is a leading music examination board that specializes in contemporary music genres, particularly rock and pop. Established in 1991, Rockschool has gained prominence for its innovative approach to music education, focusing on the diverse styles of popular music.

The Rockschool curriculum offers graded examinations for electric guitar, bass guitar, drums, vocals, piano, and music theory. The graded system spans from Debut to Grade 8, providing a structured framework for students to develop their skills progressively.

One notable feature of Rockschool's curriculum is its contemporary repertoire, which is carefully curated to reflect current trends in rock, pop, metal, and other modern music genres. This emphasis on relevance and inclusivity allows students to engage with music that resonates with their interests, making the learning experience more enjoyable and motivating.

Can I play Indian classical music on piano?

Yes, you can play Indian classical music on the piano by adapting piano technique to incorporate Indian classical scales, rhythms, and ornamentations. This involves familiarizing yourself with ragas (scales) and talas (rhythmic patterns) used in Indian classical music, as well as adapting piano technique to include features such as gamakas (ornamentations) and meend (slides). Transcribing or arranging Indian classical compositions for piano can also facilitate playing this genre on the instrument. Overall, while it requires some adaptation, playing Indian classical music on the piano opens up opportunities for unique musical expressions.

What is the difference between the piano and the keyboard?

The piano and keyboard share the fundamental concept of producing sound through keys, yet they differ significantly in various aspects. Primarily, pianos feature weighted keys and a mechanical system where hammers strike strings upon key press, generating acoustic sound. Conversely, keyboards often incorporate non-weighted or semi-weighted keys and utilize electronic synthesis for sound production. In terms of size and portability, pianos are sizable and immobile instruments, contrasting with keyboards that are typically compact and lightweight, designed for easy transport. Sound-wise, pianos offer acoustic richness stemming from string vibrations and resonating chambers, while keyboards produce electronic sound through speakers or headphones, offering diverse tones and effects. Cost-wise, pianos tend to be pricier due to their complex construction, whereas keyboards span a wide price range, catering to various budgets. Maintenance requirements also differ, with pianos needing regular tuning and occasional repairs, while keyboards generally demand less upkeep. Ultimately, the choice between a piano and keyboard hinges on factors like personal preference, budget, space availability, and desired features. Pianos provide a traditional, authentic playing experience, whereas keyboards offer versatility, portability, and access to a broad array of sounds.

Which instrument should you choose: Piano, Keyboard, Guitar, or Violin?

The choice of instrument depends on several factors. If you prefer a versatile instrument with a wide range of sounds and the ability to learn music theory quickly, a keyboard might be suitable. Keyboards are also more cost-effective and portable, making them a practical choice for beginners. On the other hand, if you have access to a piano and prefer the feel of weighted keys and the unique, beautiful sound of an acoustic piano, then learning the piano could be a great option. Guitars and violins are also popular choices, but they come with a steeper learning curve and require a separate set of skills. The decision should be based on your musical preferences, budget, available space, and commitment to practice.
