Piano solo - Level 2

I love this arrangement, and I am now able to tweak it in parts adding more chords as not yet brave enough to move to stage 3.

Piano solo - Level 3

I've returned to the piano after a long time so I bought the reading aid, although I can read music I was just feeling lazy. However, there are no dynamics included, which for the price of the sheet music is ridiculous. Unless you know the tune you don't know how loud/soft to play. I don't think I would purchase here again. It's more expensive than most sites and also they don't offer the play along facility.

Noviscore answer: Thank you for your interest in our site and for your comments. In contrast to classical music, you can easily find and listen to original recordings of the modern song titles in our catalogue. This way you can study the artists' exact nuances and interpretations. However, as music is a means of expression, we invite every musician to feel free to make each piece his or her own by playing their own interpretations. So, for these reasons, we decided not to put in the dynamics of the original versions in our sheet music. We are sorry that our sheet music does not give you complete satisfaction
