This repertory contains a diverse collection of twentieth century pieces in a varying range of difficulties, from early intermediate to quite advanced. It is an excellent addition to any pianists library.

I am using it everyday for piano lesson

These pieces are at a beginner-intermediate stage. For someone like me in the advanced level, I wouldn't recommend this unless you want a good sight reading workout.
