Description:
This book, by noted Australian percussionist Alex Pertout, was designed to develop sight reading and rhythmical skills in instrumentalists and vocalists by presenting a course of progressive lessons and studies specifically aimed at these areas.
The most important element in becoming a proficient reader is to develop an ability to count precisely while maintaining a steady tempo. Alex -- a performer, composer and educator with over twenty years experience -- developed the graded method used here over a number of years while teaching a college course on the subject. This book can easily meet the needs of the beginner or the advanced student looking for rhythmical sight reading material.
The course is laid out in three sections:
Section I: Lessons (22 in total)
Section II: Studies (11 in total)
Section III: Syncopation (11 Studies in total)
For the student without any prior knowledge of music, this book can offer a self teaching method.
