About ABRSM Grade 5
Grade 5 music theory is the most-taken of the ABRSM 8 theory grades, because it is a pre-requisite for taking grades 6-8 practical exams.
The topics learned at grade 5 are basic "music literacy" - how to understand the dots on the page, but also how music works. The candidate is expected to know all keys (up to 6 sharps/flats) and be able to cope with scales, chords and intervals in all those keys.

Course Curriculum
Victoria Williams
I'm Victoria Williams BA (Hons) Mus, LmusTCL, AmusTCL (Distinction), MISM. I graduated in music, (specialising in musicology), from the University of Leeds. I hold two diplomas in music theory from Trinity College London, and Grade 8 Composition (Distinction) from LCM.
I have enjoyed over fifteen years' of experience teaching music theory, with an emphasis on exam preparation, to students around the globe.
All the materials have been tried and tested on real human students, and have proven themselves to be effective - my students generally gain top marks in their exam (and so can you!)
