In this course, you will explore music by performing, composing, researching and analysing a variety of musical styles.

You will have the freedom to design your own programme of 15–18 credits in consultation with your teacher, tailoring your learning to your interests and strengths. This course is ideal for students who are serious about performance, composition, or music study, and who have been taking itinerant lessons for at least three years to meet the standard for Level 2 Performance.

Level 2 Music is your chance to challenge yourself, refine your skills, and express your creativity while preparing for advanced study and exciting musical opportunities. All senior music students are also expected to be part of a curricular music group, such as a barbershop group or band performance. This gives you the chance to collaborate, perform in real settings, and meet the NCEA criteria for group performance while having fun making music with others.
