About this ebook
The full eBook version of Improve Your Sight-Reading! Grade 2 in fixed-layout format - part of the best-selling series by Paul Harris guaranteed to improve your sight-reading! This workbook helps the player overcome problems, by building up a complete picture of each piece, through rhythmic and melodic exercises related to specific technical issues, then by studying prepared pieces with associated questions, and finally going solo with a series of meticulously-graded sight-reading pieces. This edition has been completely re-written, with exercises and pieces to support the Associated Board's sight-reading requirements from 2009.
Improve Your Sight-Reading! will help you improve your reading ability, and with numerous practice tests included, will ensure sight-reading success in graded exams.
