5.0 out of 5 stars Great sheet music, December 27, 2006

By	Teen (Ny) - See all my reviews

Wonderful sheet music-just a joy to play. I've been playing piano for about 8 years (about 2 very seriously) and this book was still a good challenge. The arrangement isn't annoyingly jumpy or easy-it is simply hard to play the songs at a fast tempo with the left hand. In comparison with other sheet music, it is a little higher than "RENT" and "Footlose". All the main songs are here, and great value (the book has like 20 songs for a great price).

3.0 out of 5 stars fairly challenging, September 19, 2007

By	j garr (Ohio, USA) - See all my reviews

This is not an easy arrangement unless you are highly proficient on the piano. Able to handle 3 - 5 sharps, etc. If you have been playing for less than 5 years (and that is a dedicated 5 years), then you should not buy this book. If you have been playing off and on for 10 years, you still should not buy this book. I've looked for a true "easy" version, but have not found one yet.
