What makes these books invaluable is the fact that all the laborious spade-work of sorting the wheat from the chaff has been done by someone else (that someone being Christine Brown). The goal, as Ms Brown makes plain in her foreword, is to ally the technical and musical, not merely to sift the grittier specimens from the likes for Czerny, Heller, Burgmuller, Bartok, Dunhill, Cramer, Clementi and others. Thus the intermediate student gets to experience the best of the pedagogical material to hand, and yet I'd wager that if the title \u003cem\u003eStudies\u003c\/em\u003e were to be traded for something like 'Classic Melodies' not many youngsters would balk (or notice, frankly) because the music is so, well, \u003cem\u003emusical\u003c\/em\u003e.
