Listening to Music!

Below are links to the pieces you need to know for the exams. There are 2 or 3 pieces per genre, and for the first exam you will be asked to identify 3 of the first 6 recordings listed here (Orchestra and Wind Ensemble). On the second exam you will be asked to identify 4 of the 10 recordings listed here (all genres). I will play the piece from the beginning for the exam. During the exam I will play the piece in question for 1 minute from the beginning, two times.
