Enjoyable collection
I am really enjoying making my way through this book. It's missing some of the hits from Porgy and Bess but otherwise all my favourites are there.

I LOVE JAZZ :)
I LOVE Gershwin's music - and this book is a fantastic collection of some of his well known pieces. I play the piano for enjoyment and I have found most of these pieces fairly easy to pick up. Jazz is a brilliant style to learn to deal with changes in sharps/flats and makes you think a lot quicker when you go back to pop/country music. I would recommend this to absolutely everyone - a MUST BUY for any good music collector! You will use it daily!

Lots of wonderful Gershwin classics
A wide variety of all the wonderful popular Gershwin numbers that we all love. All of the piano/vocal/guitar seem to be the original release. The ones I already had matched note for note the Gershwin sheet music already in my collection.The only non-vocal I was familiar with was Rhapsody in Blue, and I was disappointed that it was a version arranged by someone else, not the full piano version as written by George Gershwin. However, if you're not quite advanced on the piano, this may be what you want, as the original version is difficult for most pianists.There's a smattering of Gershwin piano solos. Whether these are the originals or rearranged versions I don't know. I don't intend to use them, so I didn't really look at them.For me, I'm very pleased at having all my favorite Gershwin piano/vocals, in what looks like the original versions.

Great songs by a great composer
Great lyricist, too. I use this for most of my voice students. Very nice arrangements.

s'okay
lots of songs to decide from, but overall the arrangements were easy and seemed more to be for accompanying a vocalist. if you are looking for interesting gershwin solo piano, try gershwin's improvisations for solo piano or an alicia zizzo transcription.
