What matters in use
The specifications, translated
Catalog numbers tell only part of the story. These are the details most likely to change how this product feels, sounds, or fits into a setup.
Detail 02
Lesson book
This is the core teaching book. Theory or performance companions in the course are bought separately.
Detail 03
Included CD
Accompaniment audio turns simple beginner pieces into something that sounds full, which keeps early practice from feeling dry.
Detail 04
Around $11
Priced as a consumable. Expect pencil marks, stickers and dog-ears within a term.
Detail 05
Method-book format
Pages are laid out to sit on a music desk; large notation for young eyes rather than dense adult-style print.

Product questions
Before you decide
Straight answers to the questions shoppers most often ask about this product.
01Is this for kids or adults?
It's the standard entry level of the course. Ask your teacher which of Alfred's beginner tracks fits the student's age and pace.
02What comes after 1A?
Level 1B continues the same course. Finish 1A first — the material builds directly on it.
03Do I need the CD to use the book?
No. The lesson pages work without audio. The CD gives accompaniment for the pieces so practice sounds like a duet.
04Can I use this without a teacher?
It's written as lesson material, so a teacher makes it go faster. Self-study works if you're disciplined about hand position and reading.
