5.0 out of 5 stars I don't actually play the piano, but this was a great gift ..........., May 14, 2007

I bought this for my mother, who is a fantastic pianist. She loves it and has had a great time learning and playing the various pieces included in this collection. In spite of being able to play many Chopin, Beethoven, etc. pieces, my mother has told me that, with the exception of the "River's Dance" piece, this collection is moderately difficult to play due to the syncopation in most of the pieces. So, this is probably a collection for more experienced players rather than beginners. Many, many thanks to the great and wonderful Greg Edmonson for putting this out.

5.0 out of 5 stars Shiny! Firefly sheet music- Its a beautiful thing, March 30, 2007

When I saw this book in the store I flipped out! (Kind of like River when she saw Book's hair, but in a good way) My friend was looking at me like I'd grown an extra head as I picked up the glossy book and flipped through it laughing in glee. But all the same it made my day, I didn't know that this musical collection existed. I bought it on the spot, though I should have cooled my jets and bought it off amazon.com I would have saved money. I don't even play piano, I play the flute, but the arrangment is perfect and I can play the melody line and enjoy it all the same. My favorite piece to play so far is Inara's Suite. My friend who does play piano wants to learn some of the music since it is so pretty and we can play together. If you are a Firefly fan, a musician or have a friend who is this is a must-buy and essential for your Browncoat collection. Shiny!

When it arrived, my only disappointment was that there wasn't more. I've played through several of the songs and I have to say that this collection of sheet music is phenomenal. Every I learn a new measure, it makes me giddy. If you're a Firefly fan and you love to play music, this is must for you.
