I think really the only way to get better on sightreading is to do it. Also
I'd say having scales and that kind of thing technically sound helps.

Subject: [kl] sight reading and summer schools

I was wondering if anyone has been to the coubertou wind chamber music
summer school (SW France)?

What's it like?

It says the minimum standard is grade 6 - I can play most of the pieces on
the grade 7&8 syllabus, but have never played chamber music before, can
anyone suggest any pieces I could look up, just so i could test my sight
reading at this level.

I am just really worried about getting there and everyone being really good,

i don't want to hold them up!

The notes say 'standard repertiore + extras' - obvoiusly i'm aware of the
famous quintets and things, i am not too good on 'standard' wind chamber
music though.

Any suggestions?

Also, How can i practise sight reading?, i have never had to do much of this

and need to learn before the summer.

best wishes

Jools
