I have been asked: are these graded books only for students who wish to take the examination?
The answer to this question is NO.... There are many people both children and adults, who would love to understand music theory, but the thought of having to take examinations in many cases have held them back. These graded books are very beneficial to the student who would like to build a good foundation in music theory, but prefer not to take the examination.
One of the greatest things about music theory, whichever musical instrument is your chosen one, the theory of music is the same for all. The music notes all have the same names, and the same time values. They are also given the same letter names when written on the staff / stave.
Another valuable feature with these books, each grade gives a Test Examination Paper, for the information which the student has been learning. A complete set of answers are given along with a Score Sheet. This is an obvious help to students taking the grade, but also very much to the student who prefers not to take the official examination, for it gives the opportunity to hold their achievement with the marks shown on their score sheet.
The terminology used in these graded books are covering for both the UK version, and also for the USA version, with regard to note names etc.
