Reviews for Sight Reading
It is worth every cent!
This is a graded book for instrumentalists and vocalists designed to develop sight reading and rhythmical skills. It was developed by Alex Pertout, performer, composer and educator in Australia. The book is laid out in twenty-two lessons starting with whole notes. Each lesson progressively adds another note value until all values are covered including their equivalent rest value. One of the problems facing the beginner reader is the ability to count at a steady tempo. Alex aids this problem by providing the counting numbers at the beginning of each exercise. It is an excellent teaching tool for the novice. It can also serve as supplementary sight reading material for the more experienced student. The biggest advantage to the book is its lay out, easy in reading, and logical sequence. My advice, if you are serious about reading, buy it. It is worth every cent.
