The information in this booklet is a mixture of my own analysis and that which I have collected from other sources. The standard is in keeping with ABRSM Grade 1. I have designed and presented the theory in a focused and easy to understand way.

The pages in this booklet are available also in three shorter booklets labelled 1, 2 and 3.
