Smp_stars30 Only 2 Pages!

"I tried 4 different versions of this rhapsody before choosing the Hare arrangement. I wanted something somewhat easy, yet full sounding and beautiful. 5 stars for the music. The description stated that it is 4 pages, it is only 2, so minus 1 star for inaccurate description, also subtract one star for $10 price plus tax & shipping ($16). "

Smp_stars20 A bland arrangement

"After getting this arrangement and finding it is written in C-major, and playing it, it sounded very bland. I then found a 'real' version by Rachmaninoff himself in D-flat that was more difficult but more rewarding too. "

Smp_stars50 Delightful!

"Easy enough to just sit down and play, but complex enough to sound enchanting!"

Smp_stars40 Such a Pretty Song

"I bought this for my daughter because I love the song, but it is a really easy arrangement. I couldn't find a more advanced arrangement, but if you are an advanced pianist, you will find this too easy."

Smp_stars20 Too simple

"When you order sheet music like this you expect it to be for the more advanced player - at least I did."

Smp_stars40 Nice Arrangement!

"Needs little "doctoring-up" in the bass in comparison to the D-Major Version but is a bit easier to read and play in the Key of C. For all practical purposes,it sounds just as nice since it is nearly and note for note transposition. "

Smp_stars40 A Simple, yet nicely arranged romantic classic

"This melody works very well on a digital piano. Using various modes, the pianist can add depth and power to a classic piece. For a beginner, this one seemed to be very well arranged. I would recommend it for a recital. "

Smp_stars50 Advanced Arrangment

"This arrangement is as advanced as you could ever wish for, for a competition or recital or performance. If you are not puffed up with the sense of your own sparkling magnificence, this arrangment will give you plenty of challenge and more importantly, please the crowd. If you are someone who just likes this pretty melody and wants a simple version to play, look for a simpler arrangement."

Smp_stars50 Fabulous*

"This music comes quite natural, and really creates an atmosphere that will leave listeners breathless. I am somewhat virtuoso, and if you like me can't find that perfect really advanced version of this song, this is a classic edition to your repitoire collection."
