Paper 3. Portfolio of advanced tonal composition

The detail for this paper has been amended to include certain combinations of instruments that would otherwise be excluded:

By replacing the second sentence with the following:

The compositions must be for two different scorings of up to five players in each composition. The instruments used must be chosen from the following list: piano, bowed string instruments, woodwind, French horn. One of the pieces may be a song cycle for voice with piano or instrumental ensemble. The piano may be used on its own; other instruments must be used in combination. In choosing the scoring, candidates are advised to follow historical precedent.
