Now more than ever, the ability to sight-read fluently is an essential part of the training of musicians on any instrument. This workbook is designed especially for violinists working towards the grade 5 exam, to help them overcome the nerves that can cause sight-reading problems, by teaching sound techniques for playing at sight and offering confidence boosting tips.
Step-by-step it helps the player to build up a complete picture of each piece, first through rhythmic and melodic exercises related to specific problems, then through the study of a prepared piece with associated questions for the student to answer, and finally to the real, unprepared sight-reading test itself.
check-boxes for each stage allow both teacher and pupil to keep an eye on progress.
