Music 1 Toolkit: HSC Practice

Plan your core performance and composition, shortlist and grade repertoire, and track every Music 1 requirement — all stored privately on your own device.

Stay organised for Music 1 — your own private practice and planning companion for the core performance, core composition, and your chosen elective.

Music 1 Toolkit helps you keep track of your own coursework, in your own words. It doesn't contain any syllabus text — it's a structured space for the work you're already doing.

WHAT IT DOES

• Coverage checklist — track the required core tasks and your chosen elective, with a clear progress count.

• Core performance planner — log your instrument or voice, chosen piece, and notes, plus a practice log with a running total.

• Repertoire shortlister and grader — compare the pieces you're considering across five dimensions (expressive opportunity, stylistic demonstration, personal fit, technical stretch, and achievability), with editable weightings and a balance indicator that flags an over-ambitious choice rather than rewarding it. This is a planning aid, not a mark predictor.

• Composition notebook — a development log for your core and elective compositions, with text notes, voice memos, and video.

• Viva voce preparation — note your musicological focus and thesis, and prepare answers to the questions you expect.

• Export — pull your notes, logs, gradings, and recordings into a file you can save, AirDrop, or email, whenever you want a copy.

YOUR DATA STAYS YOURS

Everything you enter — checklists, practice logs, repertoire grades, composition notes, recordings — stays on your own device. There's no account, no sign-in, no chat, and nothing is sent anywhere unless you choose to export and share it yourself.

ONE PAYMENT, NO SUBSCRIPTION

A single one-off purchase unlocks the repertoire grader, recordings, and export. No subscription, ever.

Works on iPhone, iPad, and Mac (Apple Silicon).
