    How to Sight Read for Violinists

    1- Assess the key signature and play the scale either on your

    violin or if in an audition setting just identify the finger patterns

    and touch the notes on the fingerboard.

    2- Do a rhythmic analysis by tapping the rhythm.

    3- Look at the shape of the melody. Does it move in scales or jumps?

    Ascending or descending? Scan for accidentals, dynamics, etc...

    4- Play the first line in your head.

    5- Now play on the violin.

    Memorize this list and practice your sight reading skills using

    this protocol until it becomes automatic.
