how'd you all go?!?!
so glad there were no really weird unheards!
and i LOVED the first question of section B :D
usually i'm best at jazz pieces for unheard but i struggled with the structural/harmony question... i talked about the use of 12 bar blues, i think i said it was a cyclic structure but i'm pretty sure it wasn't and i made that up haha
and then just identified bits in each section... don't think my answer was very good =/
but section B and C was a breeze though!

It's just repeated 12 bar blues and you discuss the variation of instruments as they perform with the call and response between them and the swing band.

I felt it was a very reasonable exam, I'm just so happy that there was no ambiguous questions :D Although.. I did run out of time and only got about 1 paragraph written on the last question  :-[

However, I do not care, because WE'RE FINISHED :D :D :D

WOO FINISHED :D
I think it was pretty good, I finished with about a minute to go, but the question that threw me was the Australian style one, apart from that pretty happy with it.
and YAY FOR NO WEIRD SECTION A!!
