Five Stars Amazon Customer Easy sight reading!. "fun, easy to play music" according to Ruth B. Klein. I was looking for Jewish music that is fun and easy to play. My piano teacher recomended this book.One thing that I like about the music was that, though easy play, the songs do not sound like elementary piano music.I enjoyed the commentary explaining the background of each piece.. Oy! Is this much fun legal? It was everything I had hoped for! As a non-Hebrew and Protestant, I quickly got some suggestions from my Jewish friends and started trying out these tunes. One or two I recognized right away, the rest will take some work. I began life as a musician in church then band, all the way through ten years in the Air Force, with some choral experience along the way. Lately, I've learned ukulele, and discovered a lot of fun when I have the chords with the score. I've also referred this little anthology to some of my friends. Of the 22 songs, I'm sure there will be some you like. Well worth the price. Enjoy, share, make a joyful noise.
