Further on evaluation

During the autumn semester, the student must perform a concert or similar production. This work must be documented via sound or video recording. This documentation is the part denoted as "work" in the examination arrangement. The concert is assessed together with the final, practical, examination concert. The repertoire in the two concerts must as a general rule be different, but should have a clear link to the chosen in-depth study. If part the same repertoire is to be repeated, this must be agreed together with teaching supervisor, and a written justification must follow. If one of the assessment activities is failed, the student will have a new assessment in the part that was failed. The length of the practical exam is 45-60 minutes, depending on the student's musical instrument. All subtopics within the Master in performing music must be passed to get access to exam in this course.
