&ldqu o;Technical information presented in commendably easy to understand language; Totally recommended; amazingly comprehensive.” (Jazz Journal)

“An excellent & convenient reference tool ... a valuable range of differing opinions on so many aspects, obviously the fruits of collaboration with many experts. A worthwhile addition to any pianist's library.” (Australian Music Teacher Magazine)

“Comprehensive and superbly organized effort; comfortable to handle, visually attractive, and eminently readable. The Tipbook series is a splendid addition to the music field. The most striking characteristic, to this reviewer, is the way in which the material combines conciseness with solid content. A short, 'how-to' manual always runs the risk of being shallow; Tipbooks avoid that pitfall adroitly and consistently. We highly recommend this series.” (Dr. William Leland, PianoEducation.org)
