GCSE

The main content of Focus on Sound has been written by a senior examiner. Almost all the set works for the different boards are covered. Each piece has a comprehensive analysis with notation, listening, discussion and writing tests. Wide ranging extended listening projects are also provided.

Fabulous resources and the kids appreciate them and saves me so much time. Thanks for the Edexcel set works for GCSE and keep up the great work.
