This document provides a rubric for evaluating a musical performance across several criteria: pitch, time, tone, shape, and performance. A distinction level performance is described as highly accurate notes and intonation with flexible rhythmic character. A merit level performance is largely accurate with good rhythmic sense and clear musical shaping. A pass level performance has generally correct notes and suitable tempo with adequate tonal awareness and some realization of musical shape. A below pass level has frequent errors, unsuitable tempo, irregular pulse, inadequate tone, and insufficient musical involvement.
