Easy book for beginners

    • Great simplified classical pieces
I have all my older beginning students (adults and teens) buy this book to supplement their lesson books. It has a great variety of songs, a few of which they can start learning after just a month of taking lessons. These songs have actually been simplified from their original version, unlike Bastien's collection of Easy piano classics, which are unaltered pieces. The pieces in this book are easier to play and tend to follow the typical first chord progressions that beginning students learn, etc. Overall, a great repertoire book for beginning students. ... show more

    • Great way to introduce piano beginners to the best in classical music
I purchased this for my 4 year old. He loves to play piano. He is hooked to the TV show Little Einsteins. He will ask me to play songs introduced in each episode of the show. While the actual pieces are very long and hard for a 4 year old's skill level, this books gives the highlight of each piece, which a beginner can play. This book introduces over 25 composers to the little one. While the book is recommended for adult beginner, if your child is into classical music this is great for a child as well. Item arrived on time in excellent condition. Price was slightly cheaper in Amazon compared to other vendors. ... show more

    • Good if you’ve been playing for 6 months
I like that some of the pieces in this book I can play with relatively little problems. And others are harder and will take more work. It’s a good combination of both levels

    • This is recommended by my little boy's piano teacher
This is recommended by my little boy's piano teacher. I didn't know his small hands can play all these classic pieces. What a clever transformation of classic music to younger player. I wishes we knew this book when my eldest learned piano.

    • Great value for the money
Very reasonable arrangements of a comprehensive list of famous melodies. It is *not* ring bound, unlike some other volumes from this publisher, which is a little disappointing. Great value for the money, though....a useful reference for gigs, too.

    • Nice addition to your collection
Arrived in new condition and was as described. Lovely intermediate pieces by well known artists.

    • Nice book!
Love this book, especially because I am intermediate and can actually play sounding like an advanced player.
