What do teachers say about this resource? (8564)
A valuable resource that supports the unfamiliar listening part of the exam... The resource was an excellent introduction to the main features of the operas of Mozart, not only preparing for the broader cultural understanding required for the 10 marker extended question, but also it is very helpful to have an overview of the fingerprints of the style so the students can be alert to the type of questions... I liked the definitions of music specific words being placed in boxes... The summaries at the end are concise and will be extremely beneficial for the revision process and for students formulating their responses.
