Book excerpt: This book was written with one purpose in mind: to improve your bass playing skill in 24 clear lessons. Each of the exercises featured in (title is based on solid music theory concepts and structured academic approaches. The book contains etudes grounded in common (and not so common) chord tonalities written in melodic form. They are all geared to teach when to play the right notes at the right time. Each lesson builds on the previous one to introduce increasingly more sophisticated concepts and techniques. This approach enables the bass student to polish his/her reading skills and technique simultaneously. A focus on reading requires players to find more accurate left-hand positions and fingerings to play the notes as they are written. Reading brings together mind, body, and instrument, thus resulting in better playing. By studying this book, the bass student will find that better technique will be coupled with greater expressiveness. We all seek the ability to play with freedom and artistry. The better you can play, the better you will express the art that is within you.

Sight reading music is an essential part of being able to communicate with other musicians in their own language. Professional musicians communicate with written music, and because very few other instruments use tablature, musicians simply learn to read music as a natural part of learning to play. If you want to have a better chance of working professionally as a guitarist you must learn to sight read on your instrument. There are three essential elements to being able to sight read on the guitar: Pitch Recognition Instant Location of Notes on your Instrument Rhythm Recognition Sight Reading Mastery for Guitar contains extensive chapters and exercises that help you achieve mastery of each of these essential elements in a fun, challenging way. Every important major and minor key is covered, as are all the rhythms that you will come across in most normal playing situations. The exercises in Sight Reading Mastery are limitless and continually challenge, develop and improve your sight reading skills - however far you advance. The problem with many other sight reading texts is that the student quickly memorises the study pieces that are included, however, Sight Reading Mastery for Guitar cleverly avoids this problem. The melodic exercises gradually increase in complexity as you progress through the page and are designed to be almost impossible to memorise. This leaves the student with an inexhaustible resource for life. There are dedicated chapters on how to practice, and scale theory. There are many diagrams detailing the best way to find and play written pitches on your guitar and of course an in depth study of how to recognise pitches and rhythms on the written stave. All in all, Sight Reading Mastery for Guitar is the most comprehensive study guide available to help you fluently read music on the guitar.

Download or read book 300 Progressive Sight Reading Exercises for Bass Guitar written by Robert Anthony and published by Independently Published. This book was released on 2023-06-17 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Volume Two starts out rhythmically simpler than Volume One ends, and then - of course - progresses to a more difficult level, adding dynamic markings, expanding the key signatures to C, G, F, D, Bb, A, Eb, E, Ab Major and their relative minor keys and modes, and adding the time signatures 3/8 and 9/8 into the mix. Instructions and a free preview are available in pdf form at the Robert Anthony Publishing website. Like in Volume One, the exercises are all eight measures (two phrases, or one period) in length. While they are composed to be melodic and pleasant to the ear, they are also composed to be difficult to memorize, and utilize many rhythms that seem to be absent from other sight reading books. Next, I have made the staff font slightly larger than standard. While this will largely go unnoticed in the printed version of this book, it should make the electronic versions significantly easier to read. Finally, there are many correct ways to use this book. The instructions and a preview in pdf form are posted on my website so that I can update the instructions as I discover additional strategies. For example, I sometimes receive emails in which people tell me how they like to use this book. My opinions will evolve the more I use this book to train my students, so I want the ability to easily update the instructions as needed. The link for the pdf download will be directly below the picture of the cover of this book. Instructional videos supporting this book will be posted, as they are created, in the same place.
