This series is ideal for beginning students ages 11 and up. Book 1 is a condensed and more mature version of the Primer Level and Level One of the basic Piano Adventures method. Book 1 starts with a few pages of pre-reading tunes and then jumps into reading from the staff. The tunes included in this accelerated version for the older beginner appeal to the adolescent and teen set with folk tunes from around the world, familiar classic arrangements, spirituals, and fun, appealing originals by the authors. Book 1 covers fundamental rhythms (including eighth notes), all the notes of the grand staff, C position, G position, and more.

The All-in-One Course combines all the pages from Alfred's Basic Piano Course Lesson Books Levels 1A, 1B and 2 plus selected pages from the Theory, Recital and Fun Solo Books and combines them into a sequential five-book series. This eliminates the need to carry multiple books to each lesson; however, there is less supplementary material in this course than in others that include supplementary books. At the completion of Book 5, the student will be ready to continue into Level 3 of Alfred's Basic Piano Course, or any intermediate-level lesson book.
Complete Level 1 is especially designed to appeal to the student who starts piano study later than the average beginner. It is also useful for the young student who shows unusual musical aptitude. This book fully presents all the principles introduced in the regular Lesson Books 1A and 1B of Alfred's Basic Piano Course. The student moves more quickly to the grand staff and the book generally progresses at a faster pace. However, there are no gaps and there are plenty of overlaps.
