  • July 25, 2016 My take on 'Simply Bach'

    As a 3rd year student, I'm happy with the pieces in this volume. I'm not experienced enough to judge the quality of the arrangements, though they sound okay. I think that the title refers to simplified J.S. Bach, but not necessarily about the ease of playing the...

    pieces. Easy intermediate to intermediate playing is probably closer if you're searching for easy piano pieces.

  • August 08, 2012 Nice collection

    I am an adult and find most of this book delightful and easy to sight read. A few of the pieces though, have parts that I consider too simplified, with the left hand repeating the same one note-- which left me wanting for a bit more difficulty. Other pieces and...

    parts thereof are satisfactory. I would like to see this company put grade levels on all their offerings. Then if one level is too easy or hard, I would know which level was appropriate for me. I am choosing 'beginner' to describe its difficulty but maybe it should be somewhere between beginner and intermediate.
