Good Points
- Standard Notation including Tablature
- Left and Right hand fingering included. Which save you the trouble of figuring out.
- Accessible to Beginner levels. Pieces are from simple to intermediate.
- Audio Cd included with Ben Bolt demonstrating on every piece.
- Spiral Bound, easy to lay flat
Bad Points
- Vague Title of Pieces. ie. Arpeggio in A can better named as Opus 60 No 9 in A
- Some Carcassi History and Info would be nice.
Final Words
I would Recommend this book for beginners to intermediate levels. For those totally new to Classical. Matteo Carcassi is a great starting point. A lot of pieces are short enough to digest being a single page. This book helps one develop better techniques as some of Matteo Carcassi etudes are also included though the naming convention of these pieces can be better.
