To be a great rock and pop musician you need to develop a range of important musical skills — from performing with flair, to improvising and picking up new songs quickly. Trinity College London’s Rock & Pop exams are designed to help you develop these skills and take your musicianship to the next level.

This ebook has been produced to help candidates prepare for the session skills test, an important part of each Rock & Pop exam. It contains 10 example playback and improvising tests for each grade as well as guidance on exam preparation. An audio download is also included to allow candidates to practise the tests as they would be presented in the exam.
