Is this where you should be to learn to sight read music? If you don't know anything about music and need to start from the very beginning, then this is for you. We will literally start with middle C, learning what a quarter note is, and get you up to a level of proficiency to have the basics of sightsinging. Or if you want to review, this will help you as well.

What makes this program successful is working with the practice videos and audio in the Exercises link to the left. Underneath the first two level videos is an instruction of which practice video or audio to use. These instruction videos and audio are very basic,  but are the important link to application.

Although not required, it is recommended that you purchase Book 1, either a physical copy or a PDF download b
efore you start this series. Here is the link for this purchase. This will help in that most video screens are small and you'll have your own copy to see clearly.
