Learn to Read Music

Why
Does It Take Most People So Long to Learn to Read Music?

Following
the Traditional Route.

The "normal" methods used to learn to
read music still rely on
techniques that were first devised over
200 years ago! Interestingly,
most every other discipline has dramatically improved its learning
techniques.

Science, for example, was once
completely learned by book. Of course now, almost all science classes
have a "lab" portion that teaches you to use the information you just
learned.

Traditional methods of teaching
to read music almost exclusively rely on some sort of "homework" like drawing notes
for the application portion of the class. And while this might work
great if your goal is to sight read one note at a time, it will leave
you helplessly stranded if you want to read musical "phrases" (which is
by the way how every one of world's greatest musicians reads).

If you think of the greatest
musician you know of; the one who can literally sit down and play
almost any piece you set in front of him or her, they read line by
line, NOT note by note. And EVERY book, manual, class or flashcard
program teaches you to read note by note.

Fortunately, a few "rebel"
musicians have recently begun dissecting traditional music education and have discovered
several dramatic short cuts that can help even beginners learn how to
read music 2,5, in some cases
even 10 times faster
than the traditional method!

Their findings will be
published in several weeks, so keep a watchful eye and ear. And if
you're serious about wanting to learn how to read music, don't choose a program,
system or class until you read there discoveries.
