I would recommend this book to anyone doing the ABRSM Grades 1 - 5 Theory exams. This book should be your bible when studying for the exams. I've just done my Grade 4, and the only material I used was this. I have never felt more confident about a theory exam. Excellent book!

Excellent transcriptions. Only problem would be that most songs are transposed to make them 'more playable', however worth the money in overall.

Piano Tranquility ~ Instrumental Album (Piano) Editor's Choice €24.70  Availability In Stock. Usually ships in 24 hours Skill Level Intermediate/Advanced Media Sheet Music Publisher Wise Publications

Lovely book! I would say that pieces like "My Big Secret", "Mirror of the Heart" and possibly "Angel" would be slightly higher than Grade 7... Time signatures, rhythms and fingering would be the main problems. Overall I like this book and would highly recommend it to the Grade 7/8 pianist.

Frederic Chopin: Chopin Preludes ~ Instrumental Album (Piano Solo) €13.10  Availability In Stock. Usually ships in 24 hours Skill Level Intermediate/Advanced Media Sheet Music and CD Publisher G. Schirmer

The pieces are quite advanced if one wants to play them correctly... The biggest problems would be the speed as quite a lot of them are Vivace or Presto or at least 100 bpm. A good example of the high skill level needed would be the Prelude in F-sharp Minor Op.28 No.8. The less difficult pieces would be the Prelude in E Minor Op 28 No4, Prelude in B Minor Op 28 No 6, Prelude in A Major Op 28 No 7 and the Prelude in C Minor Op 28 No 20. All of which would be no higher than Grade 6. Overall a MUST have for any Chopin lover!
