It's not quite so easy, but it sure is fun!

As a self-taught pianist (and well trained cellist), I love playing from this book. It's not beginner's music, but if you can keep two hands going in different directions (almost no chords), you can play this too! Some of the pieces were originally written for piano like Fur Elise and the Moonlight Sonata; some of these have been simplified. Many of the pieces come from his symphonies, and are great fun to do all by yourself. If you yearn to play Beethoven but can't handle the originals, this book is for you.
