MARKING GUIDELINES
Time: 1½ hours 50 marks
These marking guidelines are prepared for use by examiners and sub-examiners,
all of whom are required to attend a standardisation meeting to ensure that the
guidelines are consistently interpreted and applied in the marking of candidates'
scripts.
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
matters of emphasis or detail in the guidelines. It is also recognised that,
without the benefit of attendance at a standardisation meeting, there may be
different interpretations of the application of the marking guidelines.

QUESTION 2
Choose ONE of the music examples (a), (b) or (c) below and answer the questions
that follow:
(a)
(b)
(c)
2.1 Write down the letter of your choice and NAME the work and the composer
of your chosen example, e.g. (d) West Side Story – Leonard Bernstein.
(a) Catalogue Aria / Madamina from Don Giovanni – W A Mozart OR
(b) Erlkönig – Franz Schubert OR
(c) "Who will buy"? from Oliver! – Lionel Bart
2.2 Name the character that sings the extract and state the context of the
extract in the work as a whole.
(a) Leporello: he is listing his master's (Don Giovanni's) conquests
to Donna Elvira. He describes the women that Don Giovanni has
"conquered" OR
(b) The Father: he is calming his son by saying, "be still – all you
can hear/see are the leaves rustling on the trees" OR
(c) The Rose Seller: she is singing "Will you buy my sweet red
roses?". She is a street seller in London, who is joined by other
sellers, all singing about their products.
Mark with continuous accuracy. If letter of extract is not stated, no marks.
2.3 Define the type of piece/genre of your chosen extract. Motivate why the
extract is/is not a good example of the type of piece that it represents. Refer
to the specific piece rather than to a larger work from which it may be taken.

(a) ARIA – a song for solo voice accompanied by orchestra: this is
a good example of an aria because Leporello is expressing
himself in song. However, unlike many arias, he is describing
Don Giovanni's conquests rather than expressing his own
emotions. A Catalogue aria lists items, making this a good
example of it. Could also be Opera + definition and motivation.
(b) LIED/ART SONG – a song for solo voice accompanied by piano
– sung in German. This is a good example of the genre because
it fits this description and also because the story includes both
natural and supernatural elements, which is typical of
Romanticism. Characters are depicted through the use of the
upper, middle and lower range of the voice. The piano and the
voice are equal partners in the setting with the piano depicting
programmatic elements like the galloping horse.
(c) ENSEMBLE – a number of characters express their differing
emotions at the same time in song. In this number, each seller
is advertising his/her wares by singing a specific melody with
words relating to the goods for sale. However, unlike many
ensembles, they are not expressing their emotions. Could also
be Musical + definition
NOTE: the definition needs to be included in the answer. Other
valid points in terms of the motivation will be accepted.
Mark allocation:
1 mark for definition.
1 mark for motivation.
