Introduction to Classics To Moderns
Absolutely thrilled to have found this volume! My intermediate students love the Classics To Moderns series, but my elementary students had to make do with other booksnow they have one, also! With patience, even early elementary students can play these lovely pieces. They are perfect for recitals when all the big kids are playing concert music and your younger students are stuck playing simplified tunes from Disney movies. There's nothing wrong with that, if your recital is movie themesbut when the younger students hear the more advanced students playing concert music, it's a point of pride for them to not only be playing concert music, but ACTUAL versions, not arrangements that are simplified. Fantastic!

An Intro, Classics-Moderns-Easy Piano
5 STARS! I love this book of 45 very beautiful sounding, yet easy to learn pieces put together by Denes Agay, he's a genious, right after learning all of these one can very easily step his next 2 books Classics To Moderns Books 1 & 2 The SMP level of this one book is: Elementary, the other 2 progress very slowly from Elementary to Late Elementary to Early Intermediate to Intermediate...and so on. The pieces in this book are real classics, very little editing! PERFECT BOOK BY DENES AGAY! Try his entire series.

Terrific book for beginners
This is 'the' book for your beginning students. Solid classics in original form, no silly 'arrangements'. Easy enough for an early beginner. (Started a student in it when they reached Level One of Noona's Basic) They love being able to play classics like the 'big kids' and these are a hit at recital time. Not too long, and not the usual 'silly 4-measure ditty' you usually hear. These may be no more than 4 measures with a repeat in a different dynamic, but they are certainly much different than the regular 'recital' books you get with most beginning methods.
