RichValentine Posted April 3, 2020 Share Posted April 3, 2020 https://www.sightreadingfactory.com/ I have been trying to teach myself to sight read during these fun times of isolation and after having worked through a couple of the SBL Sight Reading courses I came across this site on their forums. Genuinely the best thing I have found so far and my reading has come on loads in a short space of time through repetition. The site auto-generates 8 bars of music at a difficulty you can preset and then you can try reading it, playing it and then it can playback so you can play along with it as well. It was $35 for a years subscription but you can get about 18 pieces free to try it out. Would highly recommend it for those wanting to improve their reading. Disclaimer: They have a referral service where you can get free months if people signup. I have found this genuinely useful so posted the link above without referral tag as it has genuinely improved my reading in a short space of time. I have posted my referral link below but don't want to appear like I am pushing the site for my own benefit. https://www.sightreadingfactory.com/share/3bDdHL60vAmh6mxkPrC4 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted April 3, 2020 Share Posted April 3, 2020 Thanks for this. One of the hardest things when learning to read is having enough material at an appropriate level of difficulty. This would have been a great help back in the day! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My transcription archive in the Theory and Technique section exists for this very purpose, to provide more interesting material to practice reading.
