Subj: [kl] sightreading blues
Date: Thu, 19 Sep 2002 17:46:56 -0400

Hi List,
I am looking for suggestions on improving sightreading, and reading
ability in general. I have always been awful at it, and I am now looking to
take that weak point and turning it into a positive.

Is there a better approach than the 'grab a handy book and read until you
turn blue' method?
Are there music books that are specially put together to be sightreading
challenges?

I am a college student, and am playing on par with the older music education
majors.

Thanks in advance,
Jeremy Yager
