Great arrangements, but not "beginning" - [14 Feb 2009]
From a teacher's perspective: I love this book. The arrangements sound great and they are left/right hand balanced (versus having a stationary or primary chord left hand). They are not, as the book implies, for REAL beginners. My students can play SOME...

Your first book... IF you've played a while - [13 Jan 2009]
I'm picking up the piano again after a 20+ year break. I took 3-4 years of lessons as a 'tween, and was a very good sight reader, able to play fairly well with two hands (at the same time). I bought this music thinking I'd be able to roll right through...

Not exactly for the beginner - [06 Dec 2008]
I'm an adult learning how to play the piano for the first time. This book seemed like a good fit, but I was surprised to see how challenging the pieces really are. If this is meant for a kid, he or she has been playing for much, much longer than I have...

A bit difficult for me - [19 Oct 2008]
These arrangements are good, but a bit advanced. I am just not quite ready for this book. It is not self-explanatory. You need to be adept at reading both clefs, time signatures and the fingering is a bit tricky. I will have to slowly work up to it and...

One of the best piano books ever ! - [24 May 2008]
When I bought "My First Book of Classical Music..." I was and still am amazed by how great this piano book has turned out to be. It has 29 themes by the true masters of Classical music. The songs are beginner level but the author Bergerac has to be commended...

Bringing Classics Into My Home - [11 Oct 2007]
Even the right hand only player, can enjoy classics from these simple arrangements. The left hand is coming along with practice. This book makes learning the classics less intimidating. I would pay more for a spiral bound version.

Great Book - [03 Sep 2007]
This is a great book for beginners to get aquainted with the classics. I teach piano lessons and I'll use this one over and over for recitals! I usually like to see the music before I buy but I took and chance on this one and it paid off. I hope to try...
