Music reading inherently takes attention away from everything else so that means everything else has to be fluent and easy in order to dedicate brain power to reading. If any one aspect is not near automatic, it becomes infinitely more difficult to add an additional and complicated layer. Again, adding too much will result in too many things going on which leads to frustration. Similar to posture, all the skills related to playing the cello must be easy, comfortable and confident. Just like building a house, you can't build on shaky foundation or else everything will fall down. It's just too much! Posture has to be absolutely solid before adding a new skill. One cannot focus on cello hand position, intonation, bow hold, bow control AND reading music off the page. Music reading requires adding an additional skill on top of everything a student already knows, which also requires focused attention. I cannot stress enough how important it is to first and foremost have secure, solid and correct posture. Musical skills, playing beautifully and playing in tune must happen before music reading is begun.īefore introducing music reading I look for these things: Learning to read music is exactly the same process. Children become quite fluent in their language before reading is introduced. We don't start reading words when we began speaking - it happens much later, often many years later. I look for a number of things before I believe music reading is appropriate to add to a student's repertoire of skills.įirst off, we delay reading because that's also how we learn language. There is no prescribed age, piece or magical calendar date when we start reading. Reminder: this happens at different ages and stages for every student. It is one of the most frequently asked questions so I thought I'd address it before delving into the mechanics of reading music.
