    Excellent for Intermediate Students!

    Carol Klose's arrangements of The Nutcracker Suite are a gem for intermediate piano students. The 'intermediate' difficulty is spot on, with clear engraving by Hal Leonard. Transposed keys make these classic Tchaikovsky pieces accessible. The absence of overwhelming octaves and big chords is perfect for developing technique and sight-reading, making it an encouraging collection for school and community use.

    Adaptable Piano Solo for Collaboration

    While designed as a piano solo collection, these intermediate arrangements of The Nutcracker are surprisingly adaptable for vocal support. The piano texture, which avoids dense octaves and large chords, ensures the accompaniment won't overpower a singer. The famous melodies, composed by Tchaikovsky, are clearly presented. It provides a solid foundation, easily modified to enhance a vocal performance without requiring extensive re-arrangement.

    A Nice Intermediate to Early Advanced Nutcracker

    This is a nice intermediate to early advanced arrangement of the Nurcracker. Many of the pieces have been transposed from original keys to keys that are easier for the pianist to play. Also, doesn't make use of octaves and big chords. Overall, I enjoy this arrangement of the Nutcracker and it is much easier to learn and play than the standard Stepan Esipoff arrangement, but may leave you wanting more if you really love this piece, as some of the chords are a bit thin. This is the arrangement for the intermediate to early advanced pianist!
