This is a great book for early piano learning, I use it with nearly all my students after they've completed a couple of basic tutor books. The pieces are varied, giving a good introduction to different musical styles and piano techniques. Children really seem to like the sound of all of them, though Ballade is definitely the favourite. The CD is helpful for students who like to know how pieces sound before learning them, though the tempi on the CD are quite fast and fairly unachievable for the level at which most students learn these studies.

These are wonderful, engaging pieces. They're full of feeling and movement and rather fun to play. Each piece is very distinctive. This book helped pull me out of a dry spell when I was trying to relearn piano after a two-year hiatus. I highly recommend it for anyone who likes music from the romantic period and/or who is working on developing their touch.
