    how many of ya can read sheet music completely n where can one lern how to do so.....?

    are there ny good books on this topic in the market?
     
  2. well i started of learnin western classical..so u had to sight read..
    then i got bored and learnt some METALLICA...lol..
    well i had started up to sight read again ...then got bored again..
    i m determined to start it soon...will stick to it i hope..
    see u have to constantly read new stuff in order to improve...
    u cant read the same stuff again and again ...to improve ur sight reading.
    it needs a lot of time and patience..
    1 hr daily for 4 months and ull start reading difficult pieces..
    theres a beginners book by W.G LEAVITT..prefarably use this one to start off..
    or melbays modern guitar method is also quite popular..

    hey thanks .........i real find it irritating when i got some sheet music in fronta me n cant play it cuz it looks like a whole lotta ants lined up a zigzag manner.......hehe

    but where can i get these books? online? or if delhi....then where?
    n btw, wher r u from?
     
  4. mel bay books are available in any music store...my advice would be to start of learnin sight readin with a teacher for arnd 2 months ..and after that i think ull be able to manage urself..just see to it that the teacher doesnt waste time and rip u off..trust me ive been ripped off by a teacher when i didnt know much abt guitars..
    w.g leavitt books ..im not sure...try to google search it..
    im in mumbai btw..
    anyway all the best man...and yeah mail sent ...
