At the beginning it was a bit difficult, but after a while it became easier + it really helped me improve my playing. The play-along is great.

I love the arrangements even though some are a little too difficult for me at this stage. The accompaniment is great. I have already performed one number for members of our (Probus) Club.I bought the Flute/Oboe book also to give to a friend.

I use these books in music lessons I teach. Sheetmusicplus is a very good company to deal with.
