WHAT ARE PEOPLE SAYING ABOUT OUR ROCK & POP EXAMS?

	The UK’s Bass Guitar Magazine reviewed the Bass songbooks and praised the way that the exams provide the skills needed by working musicians. It said: ‘...the syllabus has clearly been put together by a team of musicians who know exactly what bassists really need to make a living... For example, the learner needs to study syncopation, picking accuracy and – get this! – the correct application of distortion. Now how cool is that?'
	India’s The Hindu reported describing the exams as being ‘tailor-made to showcase one’s musical personality and to boost a performer’s confidence’.
	At the other end of India, the Hindustan Times said that the students taking the Rock & Pop exams are ‘the lucky ones’ and that the exams are ‘truly keeping with the very spirit of rock ‘n’ roll'.
	Australia’s music magazine and website the Music.com.au described Trinity’s Rock & Pop exams as ‘an inspiring musical experience’.
