[Original Recording] The Definitive Classic for Adults Who Insist on the Real ThingYamaha Myuujikku Entateimento Hoorudingusu

[The Well-Tempered Clavier, Book I: No. 1 Prelude] Bach Piano Ko Miura / [Prelude in C Major] J.S. Bach – Piano Ko Miura

amzn.asia

If you find simply arranged classics unsatisfying, we recommend “The Definitive Edition: Classics for Adults Who Insist on the Real Thing [Original Scores],” a collection of relatively accessible masterpieces like Für Elise and Nocturne Op.

9 No.

2.

Beginner-friendly arrangements often omit notes quite boldly, leaving only the rough shape of the original, which can feel unsatisfying.

With urtext editions, you won’t have that concern.

However, for piano beginners starting from how to read sheet music, these scores are quite challenging, so it’s best to tackle them after you can read fairly fluently.
