The IEB will not enter into any discussions or correspondence about any marking
guidelines. It is acknowledged that there may be different views about some

Whilst listening to ClassicFM™, you hear this announcement, followed by the
piece of music on Track 5: [Joyeuse Marche: Emmanuel Chabrier Orchestra of
the Royal Opera House, Covent Garden CD 2 Track 1 from the CDs
accompanying Fortissimo for GCSE by Roy Bennett, Cambridge University
Press, 1995]
Announcer:
"And next up, we hear The Sorrow of the Daughter by the Classical composer,
Mozart. The soloist is Susan Mitchell on cello."
1.8 With reference to Track 5, comment on the accuracy of the information
given by the announcer. Motivate your response with reference to three
different features of the music.
This announcement is not accurate for the following reasons: (no
mark given for this statement)
The title given refers to "sorrow", which leads one to expect a slow
piece, possibly in a minor key. It also indicates that it is a Classical
work, and that there is a solo cellist. However, the piece that we hear
is fast, in a major key, and features an orchestra with a large brass
and percussion section, which is more likely to be Romantic because
the brass only became an important section of the orchestra in the
19th century. There is also a noticeably large percussion section,
which is also not typical of a Classical orchestra. A piece that refers to
"sorrow" is also likely to be soft, whereas the dynamics of this work
are loud. There is no solo cellist present in the recording – only a large
orchestra.
Mozart, being a Classical composer is unlikely to have given a piece a
title, as he wrote mainly absolute music – having a title indicates a
programmatic element, which is more common in Romantic music.
Other valid points will be credited.
Three different features must be referred to in order to achieve full
marks.

Commendatore's death – Mozart. Music – An Appreciation by Roger Kamien.
CDs to accompany the 9th Edition: Disk 3 Track 62; McGraw-Hill
Companies/Sony BMG Music 2006].
2.2 Identify the texture of the extract, and describe how it is created by the
soloists.
Polyphonic: there are three characters (Leporello, Don Giovanni and
the Commendatore) each singing their own melodic line because they
are expressing their own feelings/ideas, at the same time.
2.3 What is happening at this point in the opera, and how does the composer
convey the action in the music?
The Commendatore has been stabbed by Don Giovanni and is dying.
Mozart uses a suspended/held/paused chord as the Commendatore is
stabbed. Then the music changes tempo – slows down. Uses a
descending chromatic scale to show that he has died.

QUESTION 3
Listen to Track 10. [Development section from Symphony No 40 in g minor by
W A Mozart. Music – An Appreciation by Roger Kamien. CDs to accompany
the 9th Edition; Disk 3 Track 14; McGraw-Hill Companies/Sony BMG Music
2006]
3.1 Identify the section of the work from which this extract is taken.
Development
3.2 Comment on Mozart's use of keys in this section.
The expectation in a Classical symphony is that the development will
modulate to closely-related keys. However, in this symphony, Mozart
modulates instead to the minor of the 7th degree (f# minor) and then
passes through a number of other distantly-related keys. The harmony
is more chromatic than one would expect in a Classical symphony.
Works through the Cycle of 5ths which destabilises the tonic key.
Restless atmosphere (0.5), tension (0.5)
Listen to Track 11. [Bridge from Symphony No 40 in g minor by W A Mozart.

• Comment on the jazz influences / styles in the arrangement heard in Track 13.
Offer your own opinion as to which track you prefer, and justify it with reference to
the use of at least two elements of music. Ensure that the comparison forms the
body of the essay, and that you discuss both similarities and differences.
Your essay will be marked using the following rubric:

6.3 Explain the role that the media played in the development, and spread, of
South African Urban music in the 1950s under the apartheid government.
Growth of radio stations aimed at black listeners – this increased
demand for recorded music that could be played on these stations.
Growth of the recording industry – a result of the need for music that
could be played on the radio stations, and also because people
wanted to buy recordings for themselves.
Publications like DRUM magazine brought news of fashion, styles and
music from America, which in turn influenced the development of SA
Urban music, e.g. the influence of Big Band jazz on Mbaqanga and
Township Jazz.
Very little South African Urban music was spread via "white" radio
stations, magazines or newspapers.

6.6 With reference to the error in the statement made by the singer at the
beginning of the track, comment on the lyrics of this song and state how
they were interpreted by the authorities.
She says that the lyrics are in Zulu, whereas in fact the verse that she
starts to sing is the Sesotho verse (1). Three languages are used in
Meadowlands: isiZulu, Sesotho and Tsotsitaal. (1) The authorities
interpreted the lyrics as being supportive of the removals to
Meadowlands because they refer to "let's go to Meadowlands" and
"Meadowlands, our beloved place". (1). However, this phrase is used
sarcastically/ironically because in Verse 3, the reference to "our
beloved place" clearly refers to Sophiatown because it says "staying
here in our beloved place" (1) "Hell no, we won’t go" – but the song
does not state this as obviously/overtly/explicitly. It is more subtle.

Parker from the album The Genius of Charlie Parker; 2005; Savoy Jazz]
7.1 Identify the work.
Koko
7.2 Why is the recording of this piece considered so important in the history of
jazz?
It is the first known recording of Bebop made in 1945. Bebop had
begun to develop in the early 1940s but, because of the ban on all
commercial recordings owing to issues of royalty payments, no
recordings of the style's early development were made. It was Parker's
first recording as a leader. The head was partly improvised in the
recording – leading to it being called the "most famous recorded
solo". Performed by some of the most important Bebop
performers/artists.

unique to this style of jazz.
