The CCEA A2 3 Music Paper 1 (Test of Aural Perception) assesses 70 marks over approximately 75 minutes across six listening questions. The first three questions test prescribed set works spanning 20th-century orchestral music (Bernstein), sacred choral music (Fauré), and 19th-century German Lieder (Schumann). Questions 4 to 6 explore unfamiliar listening extracts across Baroque vocal (Handel), Romantic chamber (Farrenc), and 20th-century Neoclassical orchestral styles (Prokofiev), emphasizing aural identification of harmonic devices, cadences, metre, instrumental timbres, and historical stylistic contexts.
