E Aural Trainer - A little trick for Grades 4-7 ABRSM Aural.
The last part of the ABRSM Aural Tests at Grades 4-7 is to clap a rhythm of a phrase played by the examiner and then state the whether it is in 2, 3 or 4 time (or for Grade 7 in 6/8 time). The trick to getting a “head start” on this question is to think about the answer even before the examiner plays the phrase. “How is that possible?” you may ask. Well the phrase will come from a piece you have already heard. Before this question was one based on certain musical features of the piece such as tonality, style, period, texture etc.
Then the examiner will play a phrase from the same piece for you to clap the rhythm and state how many beats in a bar. SO THINK ABOUT THIS PART OF THE TEST ON THE FIRST PLAYING.

Lol true
THANK YOU SIR FOR BEING HERE!!! Since grade 1, I have watched you and you have helped me. During my exam, I always feel that cold rush of anxiety, when I remember what you explain in your videos, you lift me up and make me feel much better and braver. Continue what you do Sir!!!
I am glad you find it helpful. Just remember - enjoy the music.
I am going to have my exam and this video helps me to feel brave . I appreciate it!
Best of luck
I see I've improved in my ability to get the time signatures :) Your video for distinguishing between 2 and 4 time that I used on Sunday has worked :)
I aced the exam thank you.
Congratulations!!! What mark?
thanks for this video.my grade 3 exam is today.
Good luck and let me know how you get on.
Aaaah this is such a clever trick that I never thought of - thank you so much!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
You're welcome
Thank you. That was clear and extremely helpful.
You're most welcome.
Tysm for posting these! Used these last year too. Really helpful, got an exam in an hour!
Good luck and let me know how it goes.
MusicOnline UK Thanks
I messed up one of my pieces but the aurals actually went very well!
I'm sure it will be fine. By human nature we tend to focus on the negative, but the examiners are looking for the positive also. You might find this article on the subject encouraging from my blog www.music-online.org.uk/2017/12/getting-your-exam-results-vs-your.html
MusicOnline UK Sorry, I didn’t realise you had replied. Thank you, I’ll check that out now anyway. You’re right - I ended up with a merit which was better than I expected
That accent is gorgeous
Well thank you for the compliment and what did you think of the content of the video?
Hi peter
@@jonathanpang2475 Hi John.
@@MusicOnlineUK I think it was quite helpful
i played the first example as one of my exam pieces in the past !😂
XxMinxX Same 😂 I can’t remember the name and it’s annoying me
Omg me too
Also me!!
Thank you very much! God Bless you!!!
thank u so much but what can i do if i cant remember the melody ? Im taking the exam soon
Musical memory comes with practice. I have just published another video with more examples here th-cam.com/video/417Sy69ntO0/w-d-xo.html
I play that first piece on the piano. Love it.
What Grade are you on now?
I've completed AMEB 5th grade classical. That tune I played at leisure - it was among my grandmothers classical music books and I taught myself to play it many years ago. I'm a bit rusty on my playing currently. Later this year I plan to return to piano lessons - moving over to the contemporary grades.
Thank You for this video! This really helps in any exam!😊
Glad it was helpful!
I played the first piece...still helpful anyway
Glad it helped.
Thank you 🙏, your videos help me a lot, awesome video!
You are so welcome!

thank you for this video. it was very helpful
You're very welcome.
What is the name of the 3rd piece? It is nice!
Just something I improvised
@@MusicOnlineUK Hahaha
first, thank you. anyone know the title and composer of the third (minor key) piece?
+Lynkevmusic Me, I improvised a little something.
Great
how do you work out the beats in 1 bar?
Listen for the strong beat and decide if it occurs every 2, 3 or beats. I have other videos in this E Aural Trainer playlist that practice this skill.
Thank u soo much
You're very welcome.
I thought you were suppose to count all the notes in the bar to find out what time signature it is ? Very strange some people yeah it that way , can be so confusing.
No, the number of notes can vary, the "BEAT" always stays the same.
Before the tests with the big pieces where you answer questions, do they tell you what questions you’re being asked ?
Yes, they will tell you what specific characteristics to look out for, e.g. dynamics, articulation etc, but won't ask you about the time YET. However you know this question is coming so you can also prepare for this.
What is the name of 2nd piece?
Just something I improvised.
Ya look spicy😅new sub btw❤
Nice
Thank you.
it is so useful!!!!
+Bernice Hei Yu Wong Thank you for your kind words.
