This procedure is individual and is carried out on the basis of the applicant’s personal application.
Good evening! This year she is an applicant for pop and jazz singing. I decided to look for reviews (for some reason right now), it’s strange that there are almost none. So, I can say the following: the university is considered the most prestigious higher musical institution, and accordingly it has the greatest demands. Believe me, they are the biggest.
She graduated from the Sochi College of Arts in 2013 and decided to enroll there. Passed tests in Russian language and literature. I didn’t take the Unified State Exam because, as you understand, I had a secondary education. Many, by the way, despite this, passed the Unified State Exam and, in my opinion, greatly regretted it. DO NOT TAKE THE USE if two compulsory subjects can be taken as entrance exams. The probability of getting a HIGH score is very high, while on the Unified State Exam in the same literature you will get 70 as a maximum, well, unless, of course, you are a masochist :) The Russian Unified State Exam is easier, but you must admit, writing a dictation and getting 95 points is much easier than writing Unified State Exam in Russian? All this applies to children who have received secondary vocational education; others, if I’m not mistaken, will have to pass the Unified State Exam in Russian and literature in order to enter music universities and more. In literature, the entrance exam is also not difficult, if you have read all the works of Russian school literature, well, and know what each work is about, without much fanaticism, consider that you have written the exam with a decent score! A very simple test compared to the Unified State Exam.
As for the entrance tests in written and oral music theory, here things are much(!) more complicated. In theory, you need to swim. This is what they give to pop-jazz vocals, at least that’s what we had today, and I think they don’t change the requirements every year: 1. write a dictation (the teacher plays about 6 times at a moving tempo, the dictation is complex, with constant chromaticisms ); 2. The written work consists of 5 points - a) write a major pentatonic scale from the sound C, write a melodic minor scale from the sound C. It is not difficult; b) intervals are given, you need to define them, indicate the keys and resolve them as many times as possible, again, they ask without fanaticism; c) seventh chords are given, they need to be determined, keys indicated, and resolved in the same way; d) a chain with designations is given, for example: subdominant sixth chord, dominant fifth sixth chord, tonic triad, etc. You just need to write down these chords on the staff in a given sequence; e) given a melody, it needs to be transposed by, for example, a chromatic semitone down. That's all. In principle, nothing complicated, but the difficulty lies in the fact that all the chords are not given in key, so learn all the intervals of the pentatonic scale.
The day after tomorrow I will take music theory - orally (you come on two different days, then the results are summarized as one exam in music theory). In theory, they are asked orally by ear, they are required to sing from sight, etc. The most difficult exam, according to Ksenia Valerievna Politkovskaya, promises to be a specialty and a colloquium. It is very difficult to score a high score in this specialty. As I understand it, it doesn’t matter what kind of voice you have or how talented you are, etc. I don’t know by what criteria this exam is assessed (there can be no talk of dirty intonation, of course, there’s something else there, but I don’t know what yet) If in Russian you get 82 in the average and in letters 80 (well, that’s not average, of course, these are high scores, but nevertheless), then in your specialty your average score is 60 O_0!
The colloquium is complicated because you yourself know how well or not well you know jazz, jazz history, creators, many names, their biographies, etc. They ask everything, but jazz is specialized, so you need to know, and if we also tell you about Miles Davis, then the stereotype of club-headed vocalists will evaporate and completely dissipate in the air :) IT IS MANDATORY TO KNOW the fable (well, or not necessary, if, of course, 60 points normal for you). Name jazz standards, great singers and singers of jazz. She is highly approved.
Regarding budget places, there are ONLY 4 of them!!! This year there are 127 vocalists, 20 places in total, 16 paid, 4 free. And this is still a small number of applicants, as they say. In general, you understand, they will enter on the budget, I don’t even know who will enter, to be honest, I’m really looking forward to this moment to understand this topic, who will enter pop-jazz singing at the Academy. Gnessins for budget places... I heard from the guys who are applying for the second time that “they” push college students into these 4 places. But this year there are no students from college... And, of course, this is unfair.
LEARN THEORY and enrich your knowledge on the history of jazz and more.
