Music GCSE

I've got an upcoming music gcse ensemble assessment this term and this is tge first one I'm doing.

I chose to do A Heart Full Of Love grom Les Mis...because its a nice piece with a subtle harmony and was right up my street.

However I'm just curious abour aju tios for group enaembles especially when doing vical duets/trios and the best ways to get marks.

Thanks
Hi there!

I'm very sorry, but I'm assuming you made a spelling error and I don't know what you're asking for the first part, but as for the best way to get marks, I'd say make sure you know all of the ins and outs of the piece, including all the dynamics you need to put in and stuff, but also try and "make it your own", much as I dislike that phrase. Add in some feeling, and remember to think about the other person (assuming, given the song, you'll be doing it as a duet or trio) but don't let them overpower you- it's your performance, and because it's a duet you're equals, remember as much. Good luck, hope it goes well for you!
