Re: Sight Reading

The key to great sight reading is paying your dues - scales (even the weird ones!) and intervals!
They give you the basic building blocks from which most music is composed.
Those blocks put patterns of movement into your head - so that you simply regurgitate the necessary patterns. Every once in a while, you will come across a tough passage, that you will just have to practice.
