Great selection of jazzy and bluesy songs for the standard level 3 piano student. Any Bastien, Alfred, or Faber level 3 student would be able to play these with practice. Each song would be a one or two lesson assignment at that grade. Could be suitable for a Level 2 student recital, but would take much work. Songs incorporate pedal use, jazz rhythm, and syncopation. Many of the songs are arrangements of well known songs. The arrangements are well done and do not sound as "empty" as many of the beginning jazz books tend to be.
Great for intermediate piano player. Love listening to kids playing from it. It's like having the Golden Age of Goodman and Glen Miller in my living room. Kids love it.
This piano book arrived just as expected - quickly & in good shape. Thanks so much!
My 10 year old daughter enjoys playing these tunes and I enjoy listening to them!
Piano teacher had me buy this for my child. Had the music sheets we needed.
