Hi,

I am doing some work for one of the UK top exam board in connection with re-doing the keyboard exam from Initial grade to Grade 8. I would really like to get some feedback about :-

1- have anyody taken keyboard exams?They are mainly taken by children but have any older members taken them?

2- what do you they think of keyboard exams?

3- what sort of tunes would like to see included that would inspire you to take the exams?

Obviously there is a large amount of older people take piano exams and with so many people now having the digital pianos and keyboards there should be quite a large demand for exams if we can get the content right.

It would be interesting to see peoples opinions on exams.

Thank-you.

Nigel

Hi,

I have three daughters (two of them learn to play piano, third one is still too young for piano lessons but expresses affinities for music too). I'm interested in this matter but not sure what kind of keyboard exams you're talking about? Where can I find it in order to try it?

If nothing else exams from Salzburg! That's already promising! :p

I don't think they do exams in Croatia, but they do them in most countries.
