Summary: Collection of Beauty.
Review: I stumbled upon this book, took a chance and brought it home. So glad I did. I can hear this music being played for a Garden Brunch, Bridal Shower, and at a High Tea. This music book is a collection of Operas, Symphony Themes, Waltz, and ballets. The symphonies and concertos are by some of the Great Composers: Tchaikovsky, Dvorak, Strauss, Gershwin, Mozart, Beethoven, Brahms. These are just a few. There are just over 100 songs. Sleeping Beauty, Swan Lake, Nutcracker mini-Suite,New World,Russian Dance,Brahms Sym No. 1,2,3,4, Beethoven's Syn No. 3,6,7, and many many more.All the songs are simple to play. I was able to play each song for the first time all the way through. I would have never been able to walk into a music story and start collecting sheet music of these beautiful pieces. Reader's Digest made it very easy! If you enjoy playing for lunchoens, teas and such, this is a great book to have in your collection.
