The ability to sight-read fluently is so important; it will help your pupils learn new pieces more quickly and make playing more enjoyable. Master this skill and they’ll not just pass exams – their enjoyment of music will progress to a higher level. Improve your sight-reading has been helping students improve their reading ability and pass exams for over a decade. With over a million copies sold, it has impacted on the musical lives of countless young musicians as they refine this vital skill.
The ABRSM sight-reading syllabus for piano was completely revised in January 2009. To help students prepare for these new exams, brand new editions of the complete Improve your sight-reading have now been published, with separate workbooks for each of the grades 1-8. They’ve been devised to support the new criteria at every stage with hundreds of brand new practice tests, guaranteeing sight reading success in every exam!
In these new editions, teachers and students will find the same well thought out material they’ve come to trust; rhythmic and melodic exercises, prepared pieces with associated questions and meticulously graded sight-reading pieces to ‘go solo’ with.
In addition, the text and music has been extensively revised by Paul Harris, with many new specially-composed pieces included. The layout has been refreshed with new typography and music setting throughout and a practice chart and new tick boxes have been added to every exercise to encourage students to work through the material methodically.
