I just got Final Fantasy Piano Collections and it is definitely superb, especially the rendition of Eyes on Me.Can any of you guys recommend some really good piano scores?
I got The Fabulous Baker Boys, Gattaca and Eyes Wide Shut already.
I am eyeing on The Piano and Legend of 1900. Any other recommendations?

The Firm - Dave GrusinI don't own this, but I remember noticing how good it was in the film, and I've got the sheet music for the main theme.
It's very jazzy/bluesy and very cool!

Absolutely, THE FIRM.Christopher Young's JENNIFER 8 has some nice piano stuff that was commonly reused on the old TV "newsmagazine" HARD COPY. As well, the theme was translated into score sheets meant to be performed at home on the solo piano (a first for Chris.)
Goldsmith's A PATCH OF BLUE has some of his most delicate piano writing; PLANET OF THE APES features some of his most intricate.
ZELLY & ME by Pino Donaggio, as I recall, has some nice piano passages.
Oh, there's always tons and tons more ...
