There was obviously great care put into put into the quality of the materials and the layout of the sheet music. People who have played Glass in the past have been challenged by getting lost in the repetition; but big numbered sections make this easy to read and work with. If I could give 4.5 stars; I would. However; Id have preferred a spiral bound option and bigger title sections for each etude.0 of 0 people found the following review helpful. Do not buy the Kindle version!By Constantine EvansUnfortunately; despite the music being excellent; the Kindle version is essentially defective. It is a low-resolution scan; most Kindle features are not supported; and only one page can be viewed at a time; in all its low-resolution hideousness. Its essentially useless for actually playing the music; and unpleasant for studying it.Dont bother with the Google Books version; either: its only slightly better; in that two low-resolution pages can be viewed at once. If you want a digital copy of the (excellent) music; Id suggest buying a paper copy and scanning it; such is the sorry state of digital editions.If; like me; you made the mistake of purchasing the Kindle version; you can; despite my initially not realizing it; return it; you need to go to "Manage Content"; however; rather than to your orders.4 of 4 people found the following review helpful. Great to have the Etudes available in print!By alex reginaldSeveral years ago; I attended a performance of the Etudes played by Maestro Glass himself.I was so impressed with this composition that I wanted to play it for myself. At last; these Etudes are available in print. Thank you for making them available and thank you Philip Glass for composing them!
