Universal Edition by Dennis Alexander, Gayle Kowalchyk, E. L. Lancaster, Victoria McArthur, and Martha Mier.

Correlated page-for-page with the Lesson Book, each new musical concept is reinforced through fun-filled writing, listening and playing exercises. With games and puzzles added to compositional and creative activities, students retain concepts more easily and learn more thoroughly.

The Universal Edition is designed for all English-speaking countries outside of the United States, including Canada, the U. K., and Australia. The edition uses the British system of terminology for rhythmic values such as "crotchet" for quarter note. This book correlates with the Lesson Book 1B (Universal Edition) Alfred Item #23863.
