I think the French Suites are some of the most outstanding pieces Bach composed. After having been away from the piano for 15 years, I again have an instrument and one of the first pieces of music I purchased was this volume. I am starting with Suite VI, which I studied in high school. I may learn the rest of the Suite or I may skip around. I have no knowledge of the English Suites but the chance to purchase them packaged with the French ones was ideal.
Great typeset!For those into classical music the Schrimer's library is probably one of the best ways to access hardcopy classical music. The combo three book set is a great way to have a great collection of scores at your finger tips.The font is clear and reproduced from scanned plates but is done at a very high quality and there is no obvious degradation in quality. I would recommend this to those who want an alternative to IMSLP and a tablet!
Good binding and price. Clear typeset with good spacing for quick sight-reading. Hopefully this newer binding holds up better for these larger volumes than schirmer's traditional cover.
got it in no time. Good quality and protection. The music sheet can be folded in flat easily. Good value.
it is good and it is my favorits book on piano. I'm happy that found it.
