Be forewarned....while a perfectly good easy piano book, it has no lyrics so you can't sing along if you don't already know all the words!

2.0 out of 5 stars disappointing..., November 19, 2008

This review is from: The Sound of Music (Rogers & Hammerstein): Piano Solo Selections (Paperback)

This book is only "piano solo selections", it's written on the cover itself, only Amazon's "Look inside" hides it.

No lyrics, and no other instruments except the piano.
If piano is all you need, this one's for you. If you need more, stay away from this book.

The Look Inside shows lyrics and easy piano arrangements --exactly what we wanted. What arrived has NO lyrics and more difficult piano --not what we wanted. We would not have ordered it if the Look Inside had been accurate. We will not be ordering any more sheet music from Amazon.
