In the last in our series on selecting pieces for [Trinity Woodwind exams](https://www.trinitycollege.com/qualifications/music/grade-exams/woodwind?_gl=1*158u9wa*_up*MQ..*_ga*NjMxOTY0MDA4LjE3NzM4NDUwODg.*_ga_E3K7QGL4FT*czE3NzM4NDUwODgkbzEkZzEkdDE3NzM4NDUwOTYkajUyJGwwJGgw&utm_source=uki-blog&utm_medium=blogpost&utm_campaign=selecting-pieces-for-your-trinity-college-london-oboe-and-bassoon-exams&utm_term=trinity-woodwind-exams&utm_content=textlink), we focus on the requirements for oboe and bassoon, guiding you through what’s required at each level — for both face-to-face and digital exams — so you’ll know exactly what you need to prepare and perform with confidence. ###### **Exam level and format** Before we get started, it's important to note that there are differences in requirements between face-to-face and the two different types of [digital exams](https://www.trinitycollege.com/qualifications/music/grade-exams/digital?utm_source=uki-blog&utm_medium=blogpost&utm_campaign=selecting-pieces-for-your-trinity-college-london-oboe-and-bassoon-exams&utm_term=digital-exams&utm_content=textlink) available: Technical pathway and Repertoire-only pathway. The requirements/assessed areas for each of these exams are as follows: ##### Face-to-face - 3 pieces - Technical work - Supporting tests ##### Digital: Technical pathway - 3 pieces - Technical work selection - Overall performance ##### Digital: Repertoire-only pathway - 4 pieces ** ** ###### **Common requirements across all Oboe and Bassoon exams** Pieces are divided into two groups: Group A and Group B. Group A pieces are accompanied, whereas Group B pieces must be performed unaccompanied. Candidates choose three pieces - four for Repertoire-only pathway exams – including at least two pieces from Group A and one from Group B. Cor anglais and contrabassoons may only be used where stated in the repertoire list. For all exams, one piece performed may be an own composition. However, where an accompanied own composition is performed, this must replace a group A piece. Similarly, an unaccompanied own composition must replace the group B piece. Any accompaniments should not be overly supportive of the candidate part, so that an assessment can be made. * *Please refer to the [Woodwind syllabu](https://www.trinitycollege.com/resource?id=7385&_gl=1*ksv3he*_up*MQ..*_ga*MTc2NDE3MDI0Ny4xNzczODQ1NTMx*_ga_E3K7QGL4FT*czE3NzM4NDU1MzAkbzEkZzAkdDE3NzM4NDU1MzAkajYwJGwwJGgw&utm_source=uki-blog&utm_medium=blogpost&utm_campaign=selecting-pieces-for-your-trinity-college-london-oboe-and-bassoon-exams&utm_term=woodwind-syllabus&utm_content=textlink)s for the parameters for writing your own composition. ** ** ###### **Repertoire lists** Full repertoire lists for the instruments covered in this blog can be found below: - [Oboe](https://www.trinitycollege.com/qualifications/music/grade-exams/woodwind/oboe-pieces?_gl=1*1vveftp*_up*MQ..*_ga*MjY3NDM2NTc2LjE3Nzg2NjgxODk.*_ga_E3K7QGL4FT*czE3Nzg2NjgxODkkbzEkZzEkdDE3Nzg2NjgxOTMkajU2JGwwJGgw&utm_source=uki-blog&utm_medium=blogpost&utm_campaign=selecting-pieces-for-your-trinity-college-london-oboe-and-bassoon-exams&utm_term=oboe&utm_content=textlink) - [Bassoon](https://www.trinitycollege.com/qualifications/music/grade-exams/woodwind/bassoon-pieces?_gl=1*abcifv*_up*MQ..*_ga*MjY3NDM2NTc2LjE3Nzg2NjgxODk.*_ga_E3K7QGL4FT*czE3Nzg2NjgxODkkbzEkZzEkdDE3Nzg2NjgyMzckajEyJGwwJGgw&utm_source=uki-blog&utm_medium=blogpost&utm_campaign=selecting-pieces-for-your-trinity-college-london-oboe-and-bassoon-exams&utm_term=bassoon&utm_content=textlink)   ###### **Grade 1 – Grade 3** Only one duet is permitted. ##### Example piece selection: Oboe Grade 1, Face-to-face or Technical pathway - *Natasha’s Hedgehog * by Lyons – Group A - *Hot Chilli* by Wedgwood - Group A - *Sleigh Ride *by Loane & Duckett – Group B ##### Example piece selection: Bassoon Grade 3, Repertoire-only pathway - *Over the Rainbow* by Arlen, arr.
