Steps are carefully explained for developing the comprehensive master plan and getting it implemented on time and within budget.This book pulls no punches as to what usually goes wrong and why; along with what must be done; step by step; to avoid such mistakes.

Buying another one for musical friends as gift.6 of 6 people found the following review helpful. My ExpectionsBy Cherrill C. HoeftIt was just what I wanted and expected. It is important to me that the music spans baroque to the present day and the time period selections/composers are appropriate. I want my students to have an appreciation for all music from all time periods. And I want them to better understand music history. Thank you very much7 of 8 people found the following review helpful. Great Collection of Well-known PiecesBy PipigurlI had the Piano Pieces for Children (Everybodys Favorite Series. No. 3) back when I was a kid learning to play the piano. That book was organized according to difficulty level so a number of pieces were simplified. I have been looking for a collection of original pieces and Im happy to have finally found it! This book is definitely not for beginners. It contains a lot of my favorites like Bachs Jesu. Air on the G string. Beethovens Adagio Cantabile. Offenbachs Barcarolle. Schuberts Serenade. Saint-Saens The Swan and many more. I was a little surprised. though. that there was none from Liszt. I was hoping Liebestraume would be included. On a lighter note. my eyes almost popped out when I saw Engelbert Humperdinck in the table of contents! Ive heard of the opera called Hansel and Gretel before but the only E.Humperdinck Ive always known of was the British crooner back in my moms day. But a quick google search showed me that the British singer actually got his stage name from the German opera composer. Nice to know!Im planning to get The Piano Bench of Classical Music: Piano Solo (Piano Collections). It contains some nice pieces not included here. i.e.. Chopins Nocturne in E Flat. Beethovens Moonlight Sonata. Liszts Liebestraume. Debussys Claire de Lune. just to name a few.
