Click here to see what I will be marking.

Please note the following dates:

First Deadline: 19th May 2015
Final Deadline: 10th June 2015
Moderator Visit: 7th July 2015 at 4.30pm  I will need 5 of you to come to this. Watch this space.

For your first deadline, I would like to see as much of the portfolio as possible and return it to you before half term.  I will then let you know which sections “pass” and which “fails” and what (if) you need to include more evidence.


For the reflection bit of section B (reflecting on your participating as an audience member), it is possible to write a review and either publish it on the Music Department blog or your own blog (if you have one).  You can then take a screen shot and put it into your portfolio.  Please email me your finished review if you would like it blogged from the Beaumont Music blog.  If you put it on artsbox, I can have a conversation with you about it (look at Nell’s) or you need to prove you have shared this and had some dialogue with someone, recorded conversations etc.
I think most of you are on track but I would like to see the following people Tuesday lunchtime (28th April) to talk through a few things. If you would like to come and see me, then please also come:
Alex Saunders
Greg Harrison
Matt Watson
Sam Doughty

A reminder that my email address is: Beaumont.Music@Beaumont.herts.sch.uk
You can also get me on artsbox.co.uk and twitter @BeaumontMusic

Time is catching us up so please get going and do not sit in silence if you are struggling!

Ms Doan  :)

These guys turn 50 this year. Obviously none of them is 50 years old, but if you don't know this group, then you should get to know them. Formed in 1968, this all six-piece male vocal ensemble have made a name for their stunning singing, ranging from Renaissance polyphony to arrangement of more current hits. For me, I have always loved going through the huge numbers of arrangements that they have made available to us. Most of them are really approachable by the amateur ensemble, and over the years, some of their arrangements have become real Vocal Ensemble favourites. I try to make a point of teaching And So it Goes  to every cohort, and this, along with Lonesome Road and She's Always a Woman  will remain very dear to past and present members' hearts. The King's Singers have recently released Gold , a three-album compilation to celebrate their 50th Anniversary. Listen to it here . Vocal Ensemble, I look forward to taking you to their concert in January.  ...
