Trinity Piano Exam Preparation

What You Need to Know

Piano Pieces for Exam

Students must perform 3 pieces selected from the current Trinity syllabus. These pieces showcase your musicality, style, and technical skills. Choose a varied program including contrasting tempos and moods to demonstrate versatility. Regular practice and focused attention on expression and dynamics are essential for success.

Technical Exercises

Technical work is equally important. Prepare scales, arpeggios, and broken chords as specified for your grade level. These exercises build finger strength, accuracy, and fluency. Consistent daily practice will improve your technique and boost confidence for this component of the exam.

Supporting Tests

Supporting tests may include auralimprovisation, or sight-reading depending on your grade choice. These assess your musicianship, listening skills, and creativity. Take time to develop your ear through active listening and practice sight-reading regularly to improve these skills.

Tips to Excel
  • Select repertoire suitable for your technical level and musical taste.

  • Record weekly practice sessions to identify areas of improvement.

  • Maintain relaxed posture and steady breathing during performance.
