Library of Piano Classics is without a doubt a volume worth owning. A good variety of composers are represented, and the music ranges from Brahms's "Hungarian Dance" easy to Liszt's "Hungarian Rhapsody" difficult.

Be ware, however. I've found countless misprints in the music. In many cases, dynamic markings are missing, and in some instances, the notes themselves are incorrect. That's pretty bad.

Still, a good book of music overall.

THIS BOOK EXCEEDED MY EXPECTATIONS! It's 351 beautifully printed pages of classics I have always loved playing as well as new ones I'm coming to enjoy.

The plastic ring binding makes for easy page-turning and seems like it will last forever.

Excellent value in all respects.

An excellent book of piano classics. Well worth having for anyone who plays from the intermediate level or higher.

I bought this book because I was tired of buying one book by one composer just to learn one song. I really love how the spiral bound book stays OPEN. NO need for clips to hold the pages down.

The songs are the real versions, and are not simplified for easy playing. The difficulty level is hard to rate because of the vast variety of songs.

This book also makes an excellent gift for someone who has a piano. I bought this for my aunt who hasn't played piano in years, but she remembered these classics and was easily able to pick them up again!!

I've enjoyed playing this book for the past 10 years. I believe this is an essential book to have for any accomplished or even novice pianist. I got it as a gift when i was in my 3rd year of piano and i've loved it ever since then (I'm now preparing for my level 10 practical exam) . It's really helped me develop my sight reading skills. And i've spent hours a day playing these songs for fun. And the format (comb binding) of the book is great because you don't have to worry about the book closing while you're trying to play the pieces.
