Every teacher and pupil have favourite pieces in their yearly
programmes and Anthony Williams has certainly made excellent
choices in these new compilations from old, forgotten examination
syllabuses. There are five separate volumes, one for each grade,
with twenty of the old favourites in each of grades 1, 2 and 3.
These pieces usually disappear into oblivion once out of date, with
new generations of pupils unable to experience the thrills and
deligths of ten years worth of fun repertoire. Now, they are able
to relive many old favourites as well as forgotten gems in their
early days of piano lessons. Although selected by grades, the
entire collection would make excellent sight reading material for
more advanced players. Piano Professional, Summer 2008 All these
pieces are tried and tested favourites of exam-takers, so whatever
your tastes you're statistically bound to find a motivating choice.
These volumes can be strongly recommended as repertoire books.
