Improve Your Sight-Reading! Descant Recorder, Grade 1-3: A Workbook for Examinations

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 the nerves that can cause sight-reading problems, taking the young recorder player up to late elementary level. 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, finally, to the unprepared sight-reading test itself. Check-boxes for each stage allow both teacher and pupil to keep a eye on progress.
