My review is below, just a few notes here: This is sheet music, and if you are interested in this version, be sure to purchase the one labeled PIANO SOLOS -- the ASIN is 0739086731. There are other versions for EASY PIANO so if you purchase one or the other, make sure you get the correct version.
*********************************************

Although I have played piano for many years and can (slowly) read music, I play mostly by ear. I like a challenge from time to time, especially since using sheet music will help to keep my reading skills at a reasonable level. Buying sheet music from films can be a hit or miss endeavor and in most cases the product doesn’t come close to being satisfactory.

The Harry Potter sheet music was exactly what I was hoping it would be. I would consider the arrangements in the intermediate level (and perhaps some of them in the advanced level). Skimming through the book, I was pleased that these are not watered-down versions with the emphasis on the melody. Rather, there is plenty of discord to replicate the sounds from the movies. The cover binder is of good quality, and should maintain its shape during normal use.

I can easily predict these songs will take hours of practice for me to be able to play each one smoothly. Finding 36 of them in one book is a pleasure and certainly less expensive than trying to track them all down individually. Highly recommended. Five stars.
