Grade 1 violin exam tomorrow, cannot find accompaniment!

[JellyBellies]

Please can someone advice. DS10 is doing his grade 1 violin exam tomorrow and has just told me that he cannot find the piano accompaniment sheet music.

Is there a way to download this? He has left it at school and has the exam at 9 am tomorrow!

Also, does he need to take photo id for the exam?

Is his violin teacher playing the accompaniment? Are you sure they haven't taken it? That's what my daughter's teacher didn't she didn't want them forgetting it. Contact them. They will probably have copies. Good luck to him.

Speak to his music teacher. They should have a copy.
I don't remember taking photo Id to any of mine. I think they would have told you if you did.

I've never had to take ID - small town, students all known to the staff. Big city? I don't know. But why not take it anyway? Better safe than sorry.

Is it ABRSM? No ID ever required for us.,who is playing accompaniment? they probably have pieces anyway. If it’s ABRSM I think I have the accompaniment upstairs. I could take photo and send over to you if you need it (but you normally need original copies for copyright purposes). I don’t have a scanner at home I’m afraid.

My daughters flute teacher always has her own music to accompany we have never taken it. And never needed photo id just give the name when you get there and ticked off a list.

You can't download or copy music for an exam BUT grade 1 violin is going to be a pretty common exam pack so get out there on social media/call teacher even the exam centre in the morning might have someone doing the same exam if it's a big centre? Get out there asking NOW and remember to say what year so 2019/2020 violin grade 1 (or whichever it is) so you don't end up thinking you've got it and you've got the previous seasons. Good luck, I'm sure you'll find one.

Also wherever you are Amazon sell all the ABRSM stuff, if you've got super fast delivery that might be an option (no idea I'm in the back of beyond this might be fairy dust unusual) pricey but cheaper than paying to do the exam again.

Second the accompaniest might have them too, I've had that panic moment before.

Thanks all! I have text the music teacher. She is not planning to be there so we definitely have to take it in.

Our other plan was to check if the school is open at 8 and go to his classroom and get it!

Ah, I didn't say DS has left the second copy in his drawer at school! Only or is exam centre is 45, min away

Which board? Dc did grade 1 violin this year I might be able to find the book

It's Abrsm. And I'm in the east midlands if anyone has a copy?

I have the book. Which pieces? I can take a photo and send to you if you PM me your phone number or email? No scanner at home .

They don’t like copies but if you have the original book showing you do have parts and accompaniment but just playing off copies might be ok.

UPDATE

Was at the school gates at 7.30 am and it was thank fully open! Managed to get to his classroom with the help of another teacher and got the accompaniment!!

Thanks all, and thank you so much for the offer @GaraMedouar

Oh you’re welcome @JellyBellies - I was on standby ! Good luck to your DS (we’re just waiting for DD’s Violin Grade 2 results at the mo!)

So glad you got it, enough worry as it is! Hope the exam went really well.

Only just reading this, so glad you managed to get it OK!

DD lent her piano score to another student who turned up without theirs for her Violin Grade 1 - it's not unknown! Good luck in the exam!

Glad you got it Op. I hope the exam went well!
