Help Sight reading music?
Alex M asked:
I have been playing saxophone for 6 years and i'm a pretty decent player but i can't really sight read music.
example -
when we get a new song in concert band i can't make heads or tails of how it goes rhythms, how fas, etc (i know notes, they arent the problem)...I have to wait until my folder partner plays it and hear how it is played. I'm very subconscious about my playing and i'm nervous that I will be called out for this and i am also concerned as why i have not developed these skills over all these years. Please help a fellow musician.
