Fantastic Literature
This 3 book series was the original sequel to Masterwork Classics 6. These books cover levels 7-9. But few people realized this, so Alfred released Masterwork Classics 7-10 instead. I like the selections in Encore better than those in MC. But its nice to have a choice. Good features:Good editingDouble romantic period selectionsPieces that build on prior piecesInteresting music that students like.

Lacking in accuracy
This pieces are well-chosen for this collection, but the details on the pieces are lacking or completely wrong in some cases. The Cimarosa Sonata is actually a third movement (R.14), which would be helpful to know. The Kabalevsky song is Op. 27, No. 19, not Op. 27, No. 27. Also, the translations of titles to English are not as accurate as they could be. The newer compilations at the same difficulty level include a CD or digital downloads of the songs; here, you have to buy it separately for $10.95. This book is not worth the money; just buy The Festival Collection or Piano Literature series from FJH and Hal Leonard for something more complete and accurate, and including recordings, for approximately the same price.
