Unpitched Aural Tests for Drum KitSeveral tests are given, designed to develop the candidate’s abilities in the fields of musical perception, dis-
crimination, memory, understanding and analysis. The tests are carefully graded from application of basic
skills to more advanced understanding.
Note that these tests are available for specialist-examined visits in the UK only.
The tests for Grades 1 to 6 has four parts, the Grade 7 test has five and the Grade 8 test has six.
Part 1
The candidate will play along on the drum kit to a piano part played by the examiner. The candidate should
accompany it on the second playing. The examiner will count in. The candidate should use appropriaterhythms and fills for the grade taken.
Part 2
The examiner will play a short phrase twice on the drum kit. The candidate is to watch and then play it back.
The phrase will contain styles, rhythms and fills appropriate to the grade.
Part 3
The candidate will be asked to recognise the time signature of a phrase played twice by the examiner. The
phrase will use one of the time signatures associated with the grade taken. A pulse will be given and accents
placed on the first beat of the bar.
Part 4The candidate will be asked to recognise the style of a pattern played by the examiner on the drum kit. This
will be taken from the appropriate part of the grid on page 23.
Part 5 (Grades 7 & 8 only)
The candidate will be shown three rhythmic patterns: A, B and C. The examiner will then play one of these
twice and ask the candidate to state which one (A, B or C) was played.
Part 6 (Grade 8 only)

to recognise and name the note values. The phrase will not contain rests and an accent will be placed on the
first beat of each bar.
