Sight Read with Me! - Drouet, 72 Studies: #1

What began as me struggling to find a way to fit everything I wanted to say about how I read music into my "Practice with Me" videos turned into a whole new series! With this series, I can now focus on just the interesting parts of my practice routine in my "Practice with Me" videos without having to go into too much background detail as to exactly how I'm sight reading the music so quickly.

I didn't always sight read music like this. In truth, I never thought I would get here. What pushed me to learn to sight read like this was the lack of time to practice enough during music school while learning a lot of music theory and history. Having the theory and history backing me up helped me read music as another language, rather than a jumble of symbols that I have to decode.

I hope that this series will help those of you who have been asking for more sight reading videos! It's hard to pull random tips out of the air without experiencing it myself in front of you guys, so here we are. :)

Happy sight reading!
