Reviews
Using for a required core class. I enjoy the historical information, but do find some of the terminology too abstract for difficult pieces, regardless of listening over and over. The listening guides are nice though, when they are thorough. I did purchase new, and there is an access code that I needed to scratch for the mp3 clips.
