Is there anywhere I can get more official or unofficial sightreading examples?

If you want to really work on evil rhythms then there's a good book called 'Odd time reading text' by Louis Bellson and Gil Breines. I do think it's a very useful book, although hard work! It's just rhythm, though. There are no tunes, although they suggest that you can apply the rhythms to scales etc.

Thanks!

Yeah I will have a look at it anyway, sight reading is sight reading I guess, no matter the instrument!

Will still be on the lookout for tuned sightreadiing, I guess I could always turn to old piano books...


Thanks
