Chopin - Complete Preludes, Nocturnes and Waltzes | Piano Sheet Music Collection for Advanced Students | Essential Piano Repertoire for Professionals ... (Schirmer's Library of Musical Classics) Paperback – 26 April 2006

Excellent product and value

As my review of the Complete Beethoven Sonatas will probably reveal, I am no expert on modern piano music books. Most of my older student manuscripts open flat without any fight, or even a faint whimper in protest.This one feels a tad easier than the Beethoven book - the spine is differently designed and allows itself to be manipulated.Putting aside any reservations about structure, everything else about this book is fine. It's great value. It's just chock full of all my favourite Chopin Preludes etc, and on a bad day I think I'll never get the hang of them. There are no concessions towards less able pianists such as myself, but in a way that is quite reassuring - as I make progress, I am feeling that it has something to do with my own improving technique, rather than that someone has lowered the bar.Clear print, and on this basis I would be very happy to order other examples in this series (now sizing up the Etudes which I shall no doubt massacre in a similar way).

Didn't play the piano for about 15 years after finishing the music school and now I am happy to find a time to play my favourite classic music like Chopin and Beethoven. Plenty of Preludes, Nocturnes and Waltzes. Don't think it is for beginners. If you have already some skills you can enjoy playing your favourite music. Must have for every music lovers!

Great selection. Would always prefer a ring bound music book though

Absolutely magical music! The book contains so many pieces which will keep you entertained for an eternity. There are very challenging pieces and some which can be learnt within hours. The nocturnes consist of some of the best classical piano music you will ever hear.

A wonderful collection of some of the masterpieces from Chopin. From a performance point of view maybe not so accurate but as i am an amateur and not now a college student the Urtext edition can be a lot more expensive. Should i get to be able to play these works then an investment in an Urtext edition would be beneficial. Still think this is good value for money!

Extremely happy with the purchase of this Chopin book! Perfect for any classical pianist who wishes to learn some of Chopins masterpieces!

I’m 5 preludes in so far, nice quality book, book stays open with a bit of a bend. A book to last a lifetime of playing
