I bought this music book a few years ago, and it is (so far) the only Harry Potter music book that I have. While some of the songs are a bit difficult to play, actually hearing what the pieces sound like when a really advanced person plays them is really beautiful. The book has some difficult parts in it, with sharps and flats, but other pieces are easier to play, such as A Window the Past, and A Winters Spell, which isn't really featured in the movie and is not on the soundtrack (in the movie, it where harry knocks down the carrolers in Hogsmead), and the Harry Potter theme (called Hedwigs Theme). The book itself is on good quality paper, but has staples holding the book together instead of the normal music book binding. If you are an intermediate player, then this book will be fun, and a little challenging, but very worth the effort once you can play through the pieces.

I'm a great Harry Potter fan and I think the soundtrack for Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban is the best of all the Harry Potter series, along with the first one's. I bought the score right away when it came out. It is such a pleasure to discover the score of a piece of music you like and I wanted to know, to see what were the notes I heard in the music ! The music is so beautiful, so inventive, sometimes hard to play but worth the training ! A Winter's Spell doesn't appear in the soundtrack, but you can hear it in the film in the scene at Hogsmeade. My favourites ? I haven't any, they're all great !

This book is a great piano book. The song selection is great, espescially if you have the first to piano books, beacuase it only has one song repeated. My favorite song in the book is Buckbeak's Flight.

This song book has made me feel good because I can play most of it. Double Trouble is fun to play because it also has the lyrics that you can sing with it. Hedwig's Theme is in there with more rhythm and they have Buckbeak's Flight which in my opinion is the best song in this book.
