thanks everyone for your responses, yes these tips will help.
Thanks @PaBlikMM, I like that idea of requesting a short version, especially if I like the theme of a piece.
Interesting @ClassicBeauty to find the price ranges of a composer, that the $8 range roughly equates to shorter pieces, I’ll give it a try.
I’ll also check out all your work. I tend to bookmark first then if it’s right will make a purchase. Thanks again all.
