It is one of its largest music publishers and the world’s leading provider of music exams, thereby offering assessments to more than 630,000 candidates in 93 countries every year.

Con Brio is an online music exam board.
 
This is how it works:

• Students choose three pieces from an extensive list and submit a video at any time of year.
• No scales, aural, sight reading etc are required.
• Exams are graded from Pass to High Distinction.
• After the exam, students get a full examiner’s report with feedback and constructive criticism, along with a certificate if the pass mark is achieved.
• The traditional exam boards such as ABRSM and Trinity have exam centres all over the world, but we have some students in more remote locations who have to travel a very long way to take the exams with them.

 
Also, many students do not want the formality of the traditional exam boards, so this is a good option for students who want to reach goals, without the pressure and with more flexibility, from anywhere in the world.
 
Con Brio currently offer exams in piano, strings, flute, saxophone and singing, but the exam board assures me it will include all instruments, including more cultural instruments in the future.
 
If you wish to take traditional exams, you can still use ABRSM and Trinity but Con Brio is now available as an alternative.
 
Speak to your teacher or Tracy if you’re interested in Con Brio exams.
