Check your sight-reading skills with Specimen Tests and improve with more materials for the piano grade 8 exam.


The ability to read music is one of the major corner stones of this discipline. Without this skill playing piano would be like trying to read books without proper reading skills. Although the analogy is realistic no one would ever suppose that it could be possible to go through school years etc without being able to read. It is the same with music.


📖 "If anyone should place before you a composition to play at sight, read it over before you play it."
Robert Schumann


📖 "Wherein consists the art of playing at first sight? In this: in playing the piece in the time in which it ought to be played, and in playing all the notes, appoggiaturas an so forth, exactly as they are written and with the appropriate expression and taste, so that you might suppose that the performer had composed it himself."
Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart
In Aural Skills in Context by Evan Jones, Matthew Shaftel, Juan Chattah
