must declare at the time of matriculation his intention

degree of Doctor must produce a similar certificate
for five years from admission to his present degree.

examination.

IV. Candidates for the degree of B. Mus. are
required to pass an examination in each year as under
the regulation "Specifying the terms to be kept, and
examinations to be passed for the B.A. degree," but
the examination shall be in music only. The exami-
nation papers for the yearly examination are framed
at the discretion of the Examiners. To obviate
difficulties arising from difference of opinion amongst
masters in Harmony, the Examiners will accept as
correct all answers given in accordance with any
standard work on Harmony. The books recom-
mended for study are, -Sir Frederick Ouseley's Har-
mony, Canon and Fugue; Albrechtberger's Guide to

V. The final examination for the degree of B. Mus.
is conducted in writing. The candidate is required
to add three parts in the strict style to a given
subject, placing the subject successively in each part,
this without access to an instrument. Also with
access to an instrument, if desired, write a single
fugue in at least three parts, in the free style, to a
given subject. Also to compose a piece of vocal
music on given words, in at least four parts, with an
accompaniment for the organ, or for not more than
five stringed instruments. To these, which are im-
perative, the Examiners will add, at their discretion,
further tests of proficiency. Instrumental perform-
ance will not be tested or taken into account.

VI. A. Bachelor of Music wishing to proceed to
the degree of Doctor is required to pass an examina-
tion in writing by the Examiners above mentioned,
and to compose a piece of vocal music in eight parts,
