Yamaha Grade Examination
What is Yamaha Grade?
The Yamaha Grade Examination was started in 1967 for the purpose of enabling everyone who is learning music to improve their musical skills in a well-planned manner while verifying their overall ability.
Yamaha Grade Examinations help teachers and music learners to confirm their musical abilities and encourage them to acquire all-around musical abilities so that they can enjoy creating and performing music.
Message from Yamaha Music Foundation
The Yamaha Grade was established in 1967 with the aim of helping teachers and music learners to develop their overall musical abilities and to engage in creative and rich musical expression while having fun. Since then, it is trusted as a social standard for evaluating musical ability.
