Customer Review
Philip Glass for intermediate students
These pieces are the songs from the Solo Piano cd. Perfect for intermediate students, they work great as finger exercises as well. The songs increase in difficulty as the book goes on. My teacher was thrilled when I brought this book in to my lessons.

Excellent, with a few caveats
For anyone who has wanted to play Philip Glass piano music, this is the only thing I know of available. The music itself is excellent. Glass composed this music in his usual minimalist style, and this music offers the deceptively simple set of the Metamorphosis series, along with Mad Rush and Wichita Sutra Vortex. Some of the rhythms are reasonably challenging for many piano students, as is the repetition in the left hand (killer on the out of shape fingers, though!). My biggest complaint, however, is the book itself does not lend itself very well to easy page turning. The multitude of repeats throughout the music makes it necessary to go through a lot of page turning. To make a page stay open is nearly an impossible task. It's almost necessary to make a copy of the music just to have the music in a format where the pages can easily be turned.

Minimalist style
If you already know and like the minimalist style from Philip Glass, you'll have more chances on liking the musics on this album.It's really a mood thing. Sometimes you will play and love it, sometimes you'll just get bored over it. That's also valid for listeners.Some people will love it, some people will get sleepy.Still, a great aquisition for intermediate piano students.
