Aida (Easy Piano) Reviews:
Genius Broadway Score 
2007-03-25 - This is one of the greatest musical books I have purchesed! The music is great and when you hear yourself play it, it feels like you have always been the one playing it on the CD. Some of the songs have 5 or 6 #'s & b's in them. But it's a challenge to learn them!!!
Elton John an ultimate disappointment 
2007-02-10 - I love Elton John's music, but this show is disappointing overall. It seems as if, by constraining himself to the Broadway style, the music becomes boring at times. Most of these songs need expert performers to retain the interest of the audience. This just isn't up to the Elton John/Bernie Taupin collaborations we are used to.
Aida songbook
2003-05-29 - This book is very thorough, includes most all of the songs from the show. Chords are provided for less advanced musicians, but the piano score is quite difficult - not for beginners! Intermediates will be able to play about half the songs easily. True to the soundtrack, and all the parts are provided as well as the lyrics and details about which character is singing. Love this book!
Very good!!!
2002-07-30 - This book is excellent - it contains piano music for most of the songs in the musical, and the transcriptions are largely faithful to the very pianistic Broadway score. All of the songs are complete, containing the piano versions of the instrumental solos found in the actual score. It also has guitar chords and lyrics for singers, with a separate line for the singers' notes, complete with harmonies. Unlike many Broadway music books, this one is very thorough and does not disappoint!!! Although that playing some songs in their entirety may be a difficult task for beginning pianists, the result of playing the music from this great musical is well worth the effort, and I'm sure that pianists and singers of all levels will enjoy this book.
Exactly As It Should Be
2002-05-09 - I didn't know what I was ordering at the time because of the lack of description given by this website. This is the music book containing the notes for the music in Aida. It's set up well and it's easy to play. The music is written in both piano and guitar form.
