2012 Manual of syllabuses
Piano - Fourth Grade
Section II. Studies and Pieces (page 64)
The first sentence reads 'Candidates must prepare four works, one from each of Lists A, B, C, and D, for presentation at examination.' This is an error. Candidates in Fourth Grade must prepare three works, one from each of Lists A, B, and C, for presentation at examination. There is no List D in the Fourth Grade syllabus.
The following errors have been found in the Flute and Piccolo Technical Work Book
(Revised 1998), and will be corrected in subsequent reprints of the book:
Page 33 (Sixth Grade scale sets):
· Set 2 should record C# for the minor forms of scales and arpeggios rather than C as written (ie. the Set 2 minor keys should be E, G, C#, Bb
· The keys for Scales in Thirds should be common for all sets as listed on page 32 (ie. C, G, F, D, Bb, A and Eb majors). Scales in Thirds will be deleted from the table of scale sets and the text above and below the table of scale sets will be adjusted to include mention of Scales in Thirds in the discussion of scales common to all sets.
