Hannah smith: progressive sight reading exercises for piano piano

I don't normally write long reviews but this book is truly amazing. I bought it for my 10 year old son who is on grade 5 but strugles with sight reading excercises. This book worked like magic and boosted his confidence massively. Honestly it is so much worth the money, I bought it as a last resort in a struggle to encourage him to excercise and to watch him fly through this book when only yestarday he was in crisis and wanted to sell his piano!;) he said this book deserves 5 stars!

This book is great for repetitive exercises that gradually increase in difficulty. It has a great feel and it's fun, especially the way it gains momentum. It's excellent for quickly improving being able to read time values of notes while you're playing. I found myself improving very quickly while cramming in practise for an exam which included on the spot site reading. My only complaint is that it would have been better to have the key signatures at the beginning of the stave the way it is written in sheet music rather than just using accidentals as that meant that this aspect of reading wasn't being utilised. Nonetheless, I still think the book is beyond excellent for helping a beginner to intermediate get much more fluent and, unlike other books, you don't quickly run of or unwillingly memorise the exercises.

A significant improvement is noticed after making a habit of reading a few exercises daily. The exercises get difficult as you progress in the book and yet stay doable even for a beginner. I highly recommend it for beginners who want to improve their sight reading skill.

Más de 500 ejercicios progresivos para practicar la lectura al piano. Calidad de impresión correcta, se lee sin problemas, aunque hay que mencionar que algunos ejercicios están un poco demasiado comprimidos para que quepan en el ancho de página, pero son una minoría. Las tapas son de papel grueso y no de cartón, pero para un libro de ejercicios de machaque puro y duro tampoco parece necesario más.

J'ai été convaincu par les bons avis, malheureusement les exercices ne sont pas vraiment progressif et sont d'un niveau moyen constantLa main gauche est soit trop simple (une note par mesure) soit suit exactement la main droite et n'apprend pas la lecture avec des mains désynchronisée obligatoire au pianoI was convinced by good reviews but the exercises are not progressive at all and stay simple difficulty the whole bookLeft hand is either too simple (one note per measure/bar) or follow right hand pattern which don't teach how to read note with desynchronized hand which is mandatory for piano
