The Grade 4 Acoustic exam is for candidates who have been typically learning for two to three years and who are ready for intermediate level playing. They have mastered the key skills up to Grade 3 and since acquired greater use of technique, more complex rhythms, co-ordination and musical understanding. Candidates will be developing a sense of expression and continuing to broaden their stylistic awareness, and there is also the opportunity to improvise which will be growing in assurance and articulation. There are two types of exam available at Grade 4, either a Grade Exam or Performance Certificate.

The Grade 4 exams will introduce you to a range of repertoire from Alanis Morissette, Red Hot Chili Peppers and Robert Johnson.
