Wonderful arrangements
I wouldn't call it easy, more accurately medium difficulty.

Not too difficult
I just received this today and it looks just right for me. I'm an intermediate level player. It seems that many of the songs have been transposed to "easier" keys. The chords and fingering look simplified and easy even to sight read I believe. The music is nice and clear and legible.I'm also very happy with synopses. Highly recommend.

The intermediate level is just challenging enough to be fun for this returning-adult player
The intermediate level is just challenging enough to be fun for this returning-adult player. Considering this is operatic music, I do wish the pieces included lyrics, Since I close the windows to protect the neighbors when I play, I would like to be able to sing along too.

no lyrics
Music is fairly easy to play, but the lyrics are int included for each aria. Would have bought a different book.

Contains Puccini's popular arias in C, D, F or G, recommended fingering. no chords and no libretti.

All 25 arias, with few exceptions, are in key of C, D, F or G.Boheme, 7 arias,Gianni Schicci, 2, including O mio babbino caroMadama Butterfly, 4, including Un bel di, and Entrance of Butterfly.Manon Lescault, 2, including Donna non vidi mai.Suor Angelica, 1, Without a motherTosca, 3, including Vissi d’arteTurandot, 3Girl from the golden west, 2Recommended fingering is for left and right hand. But there are no keys above notes for keyboard players and no lyrics/libretti. Only music and a half page summary on each of the operas. But great.

Puccini, fantastischer Puccini. Immer grandiose und spielerisch, etwas schwer manche Pieces.

Simplified tunes that still capture the greatness of Puccini's genius
Easy to play tunes from Puccini's operas for piano, right hand plays melody (often single finger), left accompaniment.Most definitely very well executed and captures the greatness of genius Puccini was.It contains the most famous arias for a number of his operas La Boheme, Madama Butterfly, Tosca, Gianni Schicchi (funny enough there are two arias, whereas only O Mio Babbino Caro is playable), Turandot, Manon Lecaunt etc.I am not a good piano player, however playing this scores brings me enormous joy!
