Chinese Orchestra DSA

[phankao]

I refuse to reply to the rubbish post above, but have to state that there ARE Gradings by Exam Boards for Chinese Instruments administered in Singapore. These are NUS, Shuangyin (Shanghai Conservatory) and Central Conservatory (Beijing) .

Hi, anyone has tips on DSA via Chinese Orchestra?

Hi,

May I know if guzheng can be used for dsa for NYGH and DHS?
If yes, must reach which grade to stand a good chance to DSAed-in and how do we enroll for graded exam?

Should be able to. Just look at the individual schools' DSA webpages. All these information is easily searchable online - the links I'm listing below are just from my Google Search - you can do the same.


NYGH - look under Chinese Orchestra

DHS - look under DSA Performing Arts.

Although for DHS - do click further from the bottom of the \"Performing Arts\" Domain to \"criteria on music instruments\"
http://www.dunmanhigh.moe.edu.sg/administration/direct-school-admission/dsa-music-instruments-criteria/

For DSA Performing Arts Chinese Orchestra, they state:
\" Must have music background and attainment of certificate in any grade
Can perform one 6 min piece\"

Can someone share their Dsa experience using Chinese orchestra for 2015? What kind of qualifications the sch look for? Is Nafa qualification preferred to Nus cfa?

[Oh My Gosh]

Most says NAFA is more recognised over NUS; just like the RAD ballet is more recognised over CSTD. But on each end, there are supporters and opposers - so no right or wrong answers. Easiest is to go with the teacher’s (which your DD is learning the instruments with) expertise.
