Year: 2020
Type: article
Study design: Observational Study
Abstract: The aim of the following study is to highlight the significance of the development of sight- reading skills both in the higher stages of music education implemented in the university, conservatory, and in the music career of performer-teachers. The author has examined a large number of Soviet, Post- Soviet and Western studies concerning the topic with sufficient practical recommendations and methods for developing this skill. According to the results of the online questionnaire-based survey, carried out among participants, the data analyses showed that, in spite of giving importance to sight-reading, the respondents seek to pay more attention to this skill by involving it in the curricula on their own initiative. As a result, the author's hypotheses are fully supported. Besides, based on her own experience, the author confirms that sight- reading provides the music teacher with a broad range of benefits leading to professional development and a good reputation among the students.
