"ADVANCED AURAL - CD2" has several significant improvements on "CD1".

1) Further detail and clarification from the exam boards has enabled much more comprehensive and accurate coverage of the syllabuses - especially in the practice / sample questions.

2) Much reduced use of sequenced / synthesised material - all tracks requiring instrumental recognition use `live` performances.
