4.0 out of 5 stars
Good book; be careful of duplicating a book you have!!,

This review is from: All The Tunes You've Ever Wanted To Play! (All the Tunes Piano Music) (Spiral-bound)
I recently got a piano after a hiatus. I have been ordering music, and it never occurred to me that "All the tunes you've ever wanted to play" and "The Library of Easy Piano Classics" would be virually identical books. Not only are the selections the same, but the arrangements are the same, too. If I had to choose between the two since there is no reason for both, I would choose the "Library". The only reason I would choose that over this book is that the pages in the "Library" are larger, thus the notes are easier to read. However, if you don't own the "Library" already, this is a great book.

This review is from: All The Tunes You've Ever Wanted To Play! (All the Tunes Piano Music) (Spiral-bound)
This little spiral-bound (so it lies perfectly flat on your piano) gem contains over 300 pages of music you'll recognize, mostly classical, with some traditional popular & folk tunes (like Men of Harlech, Londonderry Air). I bought this book primarilly because I was looking for a solo version of English Country Gardens. I was amazed to discover how chock-full it was of good stuff -- the book contains delightful transcriptions of orchestral works, such as Vivaldi's Four Seasons, Mozart's 40th Symphony, Bach's Sheep May Safely Graze, even themes from Dvorak's New World Symphony. These arrangements are fun and on an intermediate level -- they sound pretty good. The reason I docked the collection by a star is because it contains very unusual transcriptions of pieces I know -- CPE Bach's Solfeggieto, Liszt's Libestraum, and Debussy's Claire de Lune are arranged in keys other than the original -- they're not merely simplifications, they're transposed in ways that don't make them much (if any) easier, and they're very difficult, distracting & confusing if you're familiar with the original compositions. I have no doubt that I'll use & love this book, and its worth every penny and more, but I'll definitely skip the transposed arrangements.
