Alfred's Basic All-in-One Course Universal Edition - Book 1

Alfred's Basic All-in-One Course Universal Edition - Book 1 is a complete beginner piano method that combines lesson material, theory and solo playing in one easy-to-manage book. Written by Willard A. Palmer, Morton Manus and Amanda Vick Lethco, it forms part of Alfred's Basic Piano Library and is designed for young students beginning formal piano lessons.

One Book for Lessons, Theory and Solo Playing

The All-in-One format brings together the core learning material a beginner needs without requiring several separate books at each lesson. Students develop note reading, rhythm, keyboard awareness and basic musicianship while also working through playable pieces that reinforce each new concept.

Universal Edition for Australian Students

This Universal Edition is specifically designed for English-speaking countries outside the United States, including Australia, the United Kingdom, Canada and New Zealand. It uses British music terminology for rhythmic values, including terms such as crotchet rather than quarter note, making it the appropriate edition for many Australian teachers and students.
