These are very neat and concise notes that cover all the 8 set works. As the sources, I have used the Edexcel textbook and CGP guide. These notes also include detailed analysis, exemplar answers and even background information. Pearson Edexcel Level 1/Level 2 GCSE (9–1) in Music contains four areas of study, with two set works in each. Included set works are:
Instrumental Music (1700–1820)
- J S Bach: 3rd Movement from Brandenburg Concerto no. 5 in D major
- L van Beethoven: 1st Movement from Piano Sonata no. 8 in C minor ‘Pathétique’
Vocal Music
- H Purcell: Music for a While
- Queen: Killer Queen (from the album ‘Sheer Heart Attack’)
Music for Stage and Screen

Fusions
