Grade 8 sight reading!

by Daisy Noble
(Yorkshire)

Hello, I have about 5 months till my grade 8 flute exam and my sight reading is absolutely TERRIBLE! I used to be okay at it, but haven't really concentrated on it for a while. Do you suggest just to practice? And if so, do you know where on the internet I could get some sample tests? Thanks!

Sight read everything you can get your hands on. Borrow music and find all the music on-line you can. I have listed a lot of free music on my site.

Good luck with your test! I'm sure you'll do well!
