The very thought of sight-reading, especially in examinations, makes most young players groan. But now more than ever, the ability to sight-read fluently is an essential part of the training of musicians on ant instrument. This workbook is designed to help overcome sight-reading problems, especially for violinists working for the grade 1 examination.
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 by the study of prepared piece with associated questions for the student to answer, and so finally to the real, unprepared sight-reading test itself. Mark-boxes for each stage allow both teacher and pupil to keep a check on progress.
